Bridges is delighted to have been named as a ‘Best for the World’ B Corporation, in recognition of our purpose-driven approach and our positive impact on people and the planet.

B Corps are businesses that publicly commit to creating value for society as a whole, not just for shareholders. To be certified, companies must submit to a comprehensive assessment of their social and environmental policies and practices, which is administered by the non-profit B Lab. The ‘Best for the World’ title is given to companies who score in the top 10% of all B Corps globally.

Bridges has been a long-term supporter of the B Corp movement, which began in the US and launched in the UK in 2015. It has always been our conviction that by helping to build a better future for people and the planet, businesses have a unique opportunity to create lasting economic value.

Bridges is a founding UK B Corp and has remained at the forefront of the movement. This year, we were assessed as ‘Best for the World’ in three categories: Customers, Governance and Overall.

We are also increasingly using the B Corp community and framework as a way to source like-minded partners, identify value creation opportunities and disseminate best practice across our portfolio of investments.
