NS Partners

SUSTAINABILITY

Responsible investment, transparency and long-term thinking are integrated into our investment approach and governance framework.

Sustainability

Adapt · Commit · Expand horizon

As long-term investors, we recognise the importance of adapting to a changing investment landscape and of integrating relevant non-financial considerations into investment decisions.

NS Partners progressively integrates ESG criteria into its investment framework while preserving investment discipline, fiduciary responsibility and the long-term interests of clients.

The European Union has established an ambitious framework for sustainable finance, including transparency obligations for financial products under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation.
