Impact Management
We measure and manage impact throughout the entire investment lifecycle. To achieve this, we set impact objectives and targets at the company and investment facility levels to guide our investment strategies. Investment decisions are based on an assessment of the potential impact of each investment and its expected contribution to the total portfolio.
We are a signatory to the Operating Principles for Impact Management (OPIM), a global framework for investors to ensure that impact considerations are purposefully integrated throughout the investment lifecycle.
