Argos has always been committed to making ESG a part of its core mission and applying leading ESG principles in its practices. In 2021, the firm joined the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI). This commitment signifies Argos ’s dedication to implement the UNPRI’s principles across its investment process, portfolio management, divestment processes, and overall firm management.
As a UNPRI signatory, Argos actively reports annually on its responsible investment activities. For the 2023 reporting period, Argos is proud to share its results:
Jessica Peters, Head of ESG at Argos said: “The results not only reflect our ambition but also the integration into our day-to-day operations and strategy. It is worth highlighting that we run a hands-on engagement programme with our portfolio companies. For instance, our quarterly ESG Club provides portfolio companies with a platform to share best practices, discuss challenges, and create a clear action plan. Such support is needed more than ever considering the requirements coming from the CSRD. It goes without saying that this requires a full team effort.”.
