Responsibility and an opportunity
As a custodian of vital businesses that touch people’s daily lives, we have both a
responsibility
and an opportunity to ensure we are actively driving positive change through our investments we
operate to deliver value for our clients and communities.
We assess a range of commercial factors including material environmental, social and governance
(ESG) risks and opportunities, before actively funding in companies and managing our
portfolios
over their holding period. This is part of our fiduciary duty to clients.
From our experience in the sectors in which we operate, ESG integration can improve operational
performance and resilience, and contribute towards reduced risk, improved productivity,
increased
cash flow and better long-term value.
Focus on materiality
We manage a diverse suite of funding capabilities and asset classes on behalf of our clients,
with different levels of ownership in, and influence over, the businesses we’re invested in.
Because of this, the way we exercise our rights and responsibilities as stewards varies between
the public market and private market businesses of Crux.
Consistent across both businesses, however, is our materiality-based approach where we focus on
ESG matters that are most important to each company, its employees and customers, alongside the
jurisdictions, industries and communities in which it operates.
Alignment with the united nations' sustainability development Goals.
In our private markets businesses, we have created a Sustainable Development Goal (SDG)
alignment framework5 to link specific ESG initiatives across most of our infrastructure and
agricultural funds with the SDGs. We report on these funds’ progress on an annual basis to
clients.
In our public market businesses, we have developed an SDG scoring system that holds over 150
data points for around 10,000 companies. Its metrics assess performance against the UN’s 17 SDGs
and are available to help inform our investment teams’ decision-making.
The private sector can play a key role in developing and implementing solutions to address some of the world’s biggest sustainable development challenges. Within many of our funds, we are assessing their impact across a range of SDG targets and sharing our progress with clients.”
Partnership and advocacy.
As participants in some of the world’s leading industry alliances and advocacy groups, we work to continuously advance our understanding of ESG issues and opportunities and to improve our own sustainability approach. Our people also participate in working groups and advisory committees in areas where we believe we can meaningfully contribute to the understanding and development of industry best practice.
We recognise many of the ESG challenges we face are shared by other financial institutions. Our membership of various industry groups enables us to address ESG issues of common concern and share best practice.”
