SUSTAINABLE INVESTING: OUR CONVICTION
Our mission is to create value for our clients and positive outcomes for the society and the environment by embedding Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) considerations into our investment process and by using our voice as an active owner.
Our commitment
It is part of our fiduciary duty to manage ESG risks and opportunities across all asset classes when investing on behalf of our clients and in their interest.
We believe that by integrating ESG analysis into our investment process, we will be able to seek long-term performance by mitigating risk, identifying growth opportunities and recognising the financial value of intangible assets, while striving to achieve positive outcomes for the environment and society.POLICIES AND REPORTS

ACTING IN LINE WITH OUR CONVICTIONS
As an independent and responsible family business, we seek to act in line with our convictions in the management of our operations:
Climate
In order to meet the objectives of the Paris Agreement, Carmignac aims to reduce the carbon emissions of its portfolios through our engagement with the companies in which we invest but also by offsetting these emissions to achieve carbon neutrality.Empowerment
As a majority family-owned company, we foster an entrepreneurial work environment which seeks to empower our employees. More than two thirds of our AUM is co-managed by women.
Our senior employees have access to a share ownership structure which contributes to creating a common alignment with our investors.
Leadership
Composed of the CEO and the Deputy Managing Director under the supervision of the Board of Directors, supported by an audit committee, a remuneration & appointments committee and the general assembly of the shareholders.Carmignac is Carbon Neutral
Carmignac’s climate change concerns go beyond our emission reduction expectations for the companies in which we invest. We have therefore aligned our own policy to deliver carbon neutrality across our current and future corporate operations. 3,510 tCO2 have been offset in total for 2019, 2020 and 2021*.
*All Scope 1 (own facilities direct emissions) and Scope 2 (purchased energy) and partially Scope 3 (upstream employee commuting, business travel and IT services) emissions.
