Responsible Investing
Making an impact with our ESG Dividend Growth Portfolio
As we remain committed to meeting the unique needs of our clients, we've introduced responsible investment options to better align our strategies with what matters most to you.
By incorporating Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors into the decision-making process, Responsible Investing can help generate sustainable, long-term returns while managing risk.
This model resonates with clients who are not only looking to achieve short- and long-term financial goals but are particularly interested in aligning their investments with their own personal values. If you are focused on effecting a positive societal impact, Responsible Investing may be a viable approach.

How do we measure impact?
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG) help us understand and measure investors' real-world impact through their investment decisions. We leverage these goals as an important framework in our own portfolio development process.
Performance does not need to be compromised when taking a responsible investing approach. Research is beginning to show that companies maintaining ESG focused policies tend to outperform companies that do not score well.
Responsible Investing can help minimize the long-term risks associated with your investments. While traditional risk management tools focus almost exclusively on financial metrics, Responsible Investing contributes to risk mitigation by analyzing a company's business model and assessing it through a long-term, sustainable-lens. Companies that are focused on positive long-term growth are those that may demonstrate a lower risk level. Our objective is to avoid companies that engage in potentially harmful business practices or maintain controversial policies that may contribute negatively to their long-term value.
SRI asset size reflects a rapidly growing market: Sustainable, Responsible, Impact investing (SRI) assets have expanded to $12.0 trillion in the United States, up 38 percent from $8.7 trillion in 2016, according to the US SIF Foundation.
While positioning our practice at the forefront of this movement, our goal is to tilt our portfolio towards industry leaders that are on the right side of change - a sentiment that is expected to grow among investors.
