We have sought to fulfil our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) by integrating Environmental & Social Governance (ESG) analysis into the investment process.

In our view, the contribution of ESG analysis has expanded beyond identifying potential areas of risk to highlighting growing sources of investment opportunity.

Such opportunities can be found in less-efficient, emerging markets where ESG investment remains less prevalent than in developed markets.

Idea Sourcing Stage

Negative screening determines the risk level by using the IFC Performance Standards as a framework, identifying portfolio companies that make a positive societal impact or have transformation potential.

Due Diligence

Rigorous due diligence is conducted on target companies by reviewing financial statements, understanding the governance structure and conducting face-to-face interviews alongside site visits.
