Private equity is a long-term business and depends on the trust it receives from investors, business owners and management teams. Our reputation and values are crucial in everything we do. We apply our values equally wherever we operate. They inform our interactions with employees, suppliers and our local communities, as well as the CFI funds’ investors and portfolio companies. CFI funds do not invest in companies involved in firearms, environmental intensive or negative impact on health and wellbeing.

We are committed to working with the industry on corporate responsibility issues including environmental, social and governance best practice, as well as raising the standard of transparency and disclosure to all our stakeholders.

They do this in close collaboration with executives from our Human Capital Performance practice, who bring decades of hands-on operating experience to bear on all our investment decisions.

Sustainability Commitment

From the outset we recognised the value a responsible investment strategy could bring not only to maximise economic returns for investors, but also to deliver a net benefit for society and the environment. Together with the management teams in the CFI funds portfolio companies, we have over the years identified and capitalised on a wide range of sustainability initiatives designed to create stronger, more robust, businesses by mitigating risks, enhancing value and improving sustainability.
