For us, responsibility means:

• developing investment strategies that reflect the values of our clients and earn a competitive return,
• using capital as a resource in the financial markets, making sure investments are directed at long-term value,
• helping future generations by focusing investment on companies that foster a sustainable quality of life.

Sustainability
We judge our actions in terms of the contribution they make to fostering a sustainable quality of life. The systems we live in - both corporate systems and broader, sociopolitical and environmental systems - should be shaped in such a way that they can develop positively and generate new options for the future.

Respect
Our fellow human beings, the environment and its resources should be treated with consideration, respect and tolerance.

Courage
Building on our expertise and reflecting on our values, we want to work with our clients to bring about a paradigm change, and in particular to cultivate a new approach to using capital as a resource.

Transparency
We are committed to ensuring the greatest possible level of clarity and openness. In particular, our clients should be able to understand the criteria that determine our relationship with capital as a resource.
