Responsible ownership, built in.
We invest in the businesses that keep Britain moving, and we take responsibility for how they're run. Responsible ownership is built into how we assess, own and improve every business, from first diligence to exit.
How it fits our process
ESG review forms part of every due diligence, is considered by our Investment Committee, and is monitored throughout ownership and reported to investors.
Safety first
Health and safety is assessed in every due diligence and tracked monthly alongside financial KPIs.
People and skills
Protecting skilled UK jobs, workforce development, training and apprenticeships, and fair supply-chain standards. Many of our businesses depend on skills that take decades to build. We protect them.
Energy and efficiency
Energy efficiency, waste reduction, resource use and carbon reporting, because lower energy and waste costs also make businesses more competitive.
Governance from day one
Proper boards, financial controls, monthly reporting, compliance and ethical business conduct.
Cyber resilience
A cybersecurity review in every due diligence.
