Our core ESG commitments
We actively consider ESG-related factors and have prioritized our efforts in five key areas where we believe we can have meaningful, measurable impact over the long term.
Active governance & stewardship
Promote active and engaged governance, holding ourselves accountable for driving value with high integrity in partnership with our investments and portfolio companies.
Sustainable growth & reducing climate impact
Reduce emissions and improve resource efficiency, embedding sustainability into our companies and rigorously measuring the resulting impact over time.
Fair employment, engagement & well-being
Lead by example and empower our businesses to treat employees with fairness and respect, building an environment and culture that, at its core promotes employee safety, well-being, and engagement.
Diversity, equity & inclusion
Champion DEI and drive meaningful progress by cultivating a high-performance culture that advances diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Community engagement
Encourage and support community engagement efforts, locally and globally.
Integrating ESG
In our investment approach
We anchor our investment decision-making in strategic, factbased due diligence that considers a broad range of risks and value levers, including those related to ESG factors. We seek to understand investment opportunities holistically, taking into account strategies, products, services, and business practices. Our investment teams strive to assess key ESG diligence findings, elevate material risks and opportunities for discussion with investment committees, and articulate potential ESG focus areas for post-investment blueprinting and monitoring.
In portfolio management
We believe embedding ESG into business strategy and responsible operations is an integral part of our approach to creating value and growing great businesses. Postinvestment, we are committed to driving meaningful progress across our core ESG commitments and improving performance on material ESG factors specific to each company. As investors and global citizens, we strive to support our environment and society by harnessing the influence of our firm, investments, and people.
