Manager's responsible investing approach

Loftus Peak believes a good business is a sustainable business; one that is well-governed avoids harm to people and the environment and recognises its responsibilities to stakeholders. It believes companies with strong ESG credentials and opportunity often carry a disruptive edge and can even be classified as disruptive by riding on ESG thematics, thus making them more attractive as investments.

The concept of sustainability is core to Loftus Peak's business philosophy. It seeks to ensure its environmental impact is minimised or remedied, that it upholds its social contract with stakeholders and act as a good corporate citizen to build and maintain trust. Loftus Peak views these principles as an ethical and financial imperative for its success. It believes that the incorporation of ESG into its investment and business processes delivers stronger ESG outcomes and is in the best interests of Loftus Peak's stakeholders.
