As global investors, we have a duty to the world and the people around us. To deliver on this, we have built the ability to assess ESG risks throughout the investment lifecycle.
Values-based investing
We apply Corvinus’ own values of Partnership, Integrity and Creativity to everything that we do, including our approach to responsible investment.
Our values-based investing approach aim to help investment teams to identify ESG risks during the due diligence process, through early review and analysis of sub-sectors which may have a higher ESG risk profile.
For our Buyout funds, the values-based investing approach also plays an important role in determining ESG risks and opportunities to facilitate decisions on which companies the funds will and won’t invest in.
Integrating ESG throughout the investment lifecycle
Understanding the key levers that drive business improvement, including ESG considerations, is at the heart of our investment approach for Buyout funds.
From the very beginning, we are committed to actively engaging with portfolio company management teams as they seek to address material risks and realise value creation opportunities relating to ESG and sustainability.
We believe that having a well-defined, responsible and proactive approach to ESG can positively drive the performance and success of our portfolio companies and position them for a sustainable future long after our exit.
We believe in forward-thinking, responsible business and that ESG is key to building companies that will compete long into the future.
ESG risks vary according to sector, region and size. We take this into account to understand the most relevant issues for each business.
