Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG)

Shareholder Impact

Seeking sustainable returns

As an investor in international equities Talaria Asset Management has an interest in the long-term drivers of shareholder value.

We recognise that environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) factors not directly captured in financial statements can materially impact shareholder value. This page discusses the incorporation of ESG factors into our investment process which we believe delivers improved long term investment outcomes.
