Bringing expertise together
Rathbones has established a Responsible Investment Centre of Excellence, bringing together the Group’s stewardship, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) integration, and ethical and sustainable research capabilities within a single, integrated function.
This Centre of Excellence strengthens our long-standing approach to responsible and sustainable investing. It reflects our continued commitment to both responsible investment principles and sustainable outcomes as key drivers of long-term value, while providing a scalable platform to evolve in line with changing client needs, regulation and market dynamics.
Strengthened by collaboration
The Responsible Investment Centre of Excellence works in close partnership with our investment teams, ensuring insights are shared, tested and applied consistently across portfolios.
This collaborative approach enhances alignment across the business, reinforcing our ability to invest with conviction while maintaining a clear and disciplined focus on responsible and sustainable investing. As expectations continue to evolve, our integrated model ensures we remain well positioned to support clients with a consistent, forward-looking approach.
Enhancing our investment process
Our integrated model ensures that responsible and sustainable investing is embedded throughout the investment process, rather than applied in isolation.
This enables us to:
- Apply a consistent framework across strategies and asset classes
- Strengthen the depth and quality of investment insight
- Identify and manage long-term risks and opportunities more effectively
- Support clear, transparent and accountable decision-making
The result is a more cohesive and robust investment approach, underpinned by disciplined research and evidence-based analysis.
