Living by our principles

We are committed to various environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles that help us operate effectively and invest responsibly. In adopting these principles, we want to ensure that everyone who works with us has the same aim – to support our stakeholders and positively impact the wider community to which we belong. These principles cover five broad areas:

Governance

As a business authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), we are governed by laws, regulations and rules of conduct to which we must adhere. Our experienced compliance team monitors and ensures our adherence, including through regular staff training and assessment.

Transparency is vital to our culture. We will always decline an opportunity where we have hesitations about its integrity rather than expose our clients, partners or ourselves to unnecessary risk. To ensure extra rigour in our transactions, our private equity investments and property finance loans must also receive approval from our investment or credit committees.

Our risk, compliance, and legal teams are heavily involved in our investment and lending decisions and enact rigorous research before any transaction is approved. To deliver further transparency, we also produce periodic due diligence questionnaires about each of our open offers. In addition, our open Venture Capital Trusts are listed on the main list of the LSE, and some of our offers are on a panel with several financial adviser groups, who run their own detailed due diligence processes.
