By selecting sustainable development as our investment theme, we address social and environmental challenges and partner with our portfolio to consistently improve their performance in this area. Through our award-winning Earth Dividend™ portfolio management tool, we seek to have a holistic overview of a portfolio company’s contribution across ESG and focus on the connection between positive impact and commercial value, ensuring continuous performance improvement.
