Triple Bottom Line
Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG, criteria have been significantly influencing the way society invests. As sustainable infrastructure investors, GoldenSet’s mandate inherently meets all three ESG criteria, and we clearly identify how during our investment review. We feel it is our responsibility to structure transactions that create jobs in the near-term, environmental benefits in the long-term and attractive risk adjusted returns for our development partners and investors.
GoldenSet Capital Partners has been a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) since 2016.
