As stewards of our clients’ capital, we seek to manage our environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks and play a part in investment solutions that deliver asset and portfolio resilience and value beyond financial returns.

 

At QIC, we seek to integrate ESG considerations into our investment analysis, decision making processes and ownership practices to drive resilience and enhance value over the long term. In our investment processes we do this through due diligence, monitoring and reporting. By understanding the diverse nature of sustainability issues across asset classes and industries, we seek to tailor our ESG integration approach to the distinct characteristics of each asset class.
