Sustainability .
Convinced that the environmental, social and governance factors are key to delivering sustainable performance, Access has incorporated extra financial criteria into all stages of its investment process since 2007 when the firm started its engagement program.
Access became a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment instituted by the United Nations (“UN-PRI”) in 2008 and has developed a three-step approach to ESG integration which covers due diligence, annual portfolio ESG performance monitoring and investment analysis at exit.
Access Capital Partners continues to hold its A+ rating in the responsible investment strategy and governance category of the UN PRI's annual benchmarking assessment, demonstrating a firm-wide pledge to ESG.
As an active and significant investor, Access actively encourages best practices among its General Partner community.
An ESG report is produced for Investors on an annual basis.
