We endeavor to integrate financially material investment risk factors, including, where applicable, sustainability considerations, into our investment process to support informed decision-making.

We consider such factors as inputs to fundamental research and as part of a broader mosaic of information our investment professionals gather to make more informed decisions on our clients’ behalf. Our investment professionals assess relevant risk factors during due diligence and monitoring activities to determine financial materiality.

Being an informed investor is central to our approach, as it allows us to support long-term value creation and address financially material issues. Our approach encompasses both informative engagement with issuers and proxy voting designed to achieve these goals.
