We believe that responsible corporate behaviour will have a positive influence on long-term financial performance.
As a long-term investor in private markets, we are committed to responsible investing and have an established program that supports the consideration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors across our investment activities.
We incorporate ESG considerations into our private equity, private credit and infrastructure investment processes at every level.
We apply an appropriately tailored approach that acknowledges the varying degrees of influence that we exercise across each asset class.
Northleaf is pleased to share an overview of our recent responsible investment initiatives and activities.

Our Approach
Our Responsible Investment Policy applies across all investment activities and includes an overview of how we integrate the consideration of sustainability risks into our investment decision making.
Our policy builds upon leading responsible investment frameworks, and its implementation is supported using tools and data designed to assist with the identification, assessment, monitoring, management and reporting of ESG-related investment risks and opportunities.
We are committed to integrating ESG considerations into our investment processes and promoting ESG-related initiatives within the private markets industry.
As a signatory to the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), Northleaf is committed to upholding the values of PRI and applying its principles across all of our investment activities firm wide.
In the most recent PRI assessment, Northleaf was awarded top scores for our approach to ESG across each of our asset classes.
Northleaf is a member of the ESG Data Convergence Initiative (EDCI) and is participating alongside our peers to encourage the common use of meaningful metrics to generate useful, performance-based, comparable ESG data across the private markets industry.
“As a large, global provider of capital, we recognize that we have an opportunity to exact positive change. Our investors, employees and the world are demanding it. And we are committed to playing our part.”
