Our Purpose
 

Stonebridge Capital (hereinafter referred to as the “firm”) aims to maximize financial return for our investors, and environmental and social values for our stakeholders. In addition, we seek to promote sustainable growth of our employees, investors, business partners, and even the wider community by integrating the responsible investment principles into our day-to-day operations and investment process.

​

Responsible Investment Strategies

 

We seek to create both financial and non-financial values for portfolio companies and adopt responsible investment strategies in the investment process. Our main strategies are negative screening, ESG integration, and corporate engagement and shareholder actions. Additionally, sustainability-themed investing can be adopted to comply with fund agreements/articles or address the needs of the limited partners.

​

ESG Governance
 

To promote the effective implementation of responsible investment, Stonebridge Capital has formed organizational units dedicated to the ESG Governance. The ESG Committee, a decision-making body chaired by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), is responsible for policy-making, management, and supervision of the firm’s responsible investment activities. In addition, the ESG Team was organized to facilitate ESG integration throughout the firm. The responsibility of the team extends to providing ESG due diligence reviews and strengthening internal ESG capacity.
