We take our responsibilities as investors and employers seriously. We aim to build businesses that are more sustainable, secure, inclusive and diverse.

We are committed to enhancing diversity efforts across all underrepresented groups in our business and in our portfolio, because we recognise that having a diverse and equitable culture can lead to faster growth, productivity and innovation – ultimately creating more value for all stakeholders.

However, we also recognise that before you can build a diverse business you have to create an inclusive culture. We have an ambition to create an environment where all our people can thrive, which is why we seek out diversity of background, experience, ideas and opinions and hire based on culture and values.

Whilst we have made great progress, we know there is still more to do. Our ESG and D,E&I committees ensure we continue to improve the impact we have on our business, portfolio and community.
