Responsibility
Merchant Banking has built its reputation on providing the highest levels of excellence. To maintain this we have defined our guiding principles to encompass a responsible and sustainable approach to Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) standards.
The seven pillars of our Environmental, Social and Governance Policy:
- Taking ESG criteria into account during the analysis and decision-making processes for investments
- Disseminate the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI) and ensure the application of these principles throughout the entities in which we invest
- Inform our investors of this ESG policy and provide them with information on our approach to ESG initiatives on a regular basis
- Adopt a responsible and ethical approach to governance
- Encourage a human resources policy which values and respects all employees
- Reduce the environmental impact of our activities
- Promote employees' commitment to society
