We believe that a company’s commitment to implementing ESG principles create a distinct competitive advantage and builds long-term value. Trillium’s robust, fully integrated investment process uses a propriety ESG scoring methodology, coupled with a time-tested fundamental approach, to identify compelling investment opportunities and competitive risk adjusted returns. The firm’s dedicated shareholder advocacy team is at the intersection of investment management and impact, engaging with companies to align values with investment objectives.

Trillium believes that integrating environmental, social, and governance factors into the financial analysis process can help identify the best companies positioned to deliver long-term risk adjusted performance. It is fundamental to our mission and fiduciary responsibility to engage with the companies that we hold on behalf of clients to press for positive change on any material ESG concern or opportunity that we believe will help protect or enhance shareholder value.

For over 40 years, Trillium has exercised its rights and powers as a shareholder to improve the ESG policies, practices and—most importantly—impacts of the companies held in our portfolios.

As investors and fiduciaries to our clients, we believe it is our responsibility to encourage the companies we invest in to do better, to be more sustainable, and to be more just. We pursue this work not only because we believe it is the right thing to do, but also because we believe it contributes to a company’s long-term performance.
