Responsible investment is key to delivering long-term investment performance to our investors
Our definition of responsible investment is a process that takes full account of the environmental, social and governance factors that might materially impact the value of our investments or that conflict with our corporate values. Our policy covers a broad range of ESG issues – from climate change to labour rights to farm animal welfare – and is implemented across our whole investment process, not just the investment decision phase.
We strongly believe that private equity’s model, which emphasises investor engagement and a long-term horizon, is well positioned to create value through responsible investment. Although secondaries market investments are by their nature often at a step removed, Coller Capital uses its influence with GPs to encourage best ESG practice wherever possible.
The rewards for our ESG efforts translate into returns for our investors and a positive impact on the world in which we live.

Our ESG milestones - through the years
Our ESG approach
We have created a continuous process, where we plan, execute, review, question, influence, engage and improve across our whole programme, informed by our overarching ESG policy.
We believe that our pursuit of responsible investment as a business is very closely aligned with this strong sense of responsibility – to our investors and to each other.
