ESG Global Conviction is an unconstrained, concentrated, benchmark-agnostic strategy that invests in companies across market-cap spectrums and geographies that meet the team’s investment and ESG criteria.

Investment Process

ESG Global Conviction applies a long-term, fundamental, bottom-up investment process seeking high-quality companies across market caps and the globe with underappreciated secular growth. The strategy actively seeks to mitigate ESG risks and benefit from ESG opportunities through robust research and active shareholder engagement, applying ESG principals consistently throughout the investment process. The team invests in companies that they believe exhibit six key characteristics: an attractive end market, long-term competitive advantage, high-quality earnings, proven leadership, resiliency, and integrity in acting in the shareholders’ interests.
