Stewardship and SI approaches
Seeks to identify climate-related investment opportunities and risks across public and private markets, including issuers supporting climate mitigation and adaptation solutions, and to help clients pursue a range of climate investment objectives.
Seeks to invest in issuers whose core products, services, or projects provide environmental and/or social solutions in a differentiated way, with the goal of driving measurable positive impact alongside financial returns.
Stewardship and SI integration
We see material sustainability issues as strategic business issues that may affect the long-term value of the assets in which we invest. When issuers improve on sustainability areas that could affect investment outcomes, we believe our clients should benefit.
Climate leadership
Scientific research collaborations with leading research institutions Woodwell Climate Research Center and the MIT Center for Sustainability Science and Strategy augment our research edge.
