We are very proud to have won the 2016 BVCA Responsible Investment Award for Overall ESG Framework for firms under £1bn in management.

The BVCA Responsible Investment Awards seek to demonstrate that by managing ESG issues throughout the investment cycle, private equity can drive greater value in UK companies and build more sustainable businesses, making a positive contribution to the environment, the workplace and the community.
