Corporate Responsibility at Brascan Capital
Our approach to corporate responsibility is commercially-based and driven by our vision. We think about corporate responsibility from two perspectives: “as an investor” and “as a company” in our own right.
We view an active approach to corporate responsibility as more than simply to reduce risk. We believe that it provides genuine competitive advantage and that it helps us to maximise the returns for our shareholders, as well as for the investors in the funds that we advise or manage.
Full consideration of corporate responsibility issues is central to the sustained success of the investment industry. This means thinking about the impact of the firm as well as each investment through its life cycle.
At Brascan Capital we believe that:
- Taking an active approach to partnership with the boards and management teams in our portfolio delivers value.
- Having good processes and policies in place on CR issues adds value to our investments, but real success depends upon the individual judgments that our staff and our portfolio companies make each day.
- Aligning interests and ensuring that there is a common sense of purpose with respect to CR issues is key to our success.
- Underpinning these judgments are our core values. In all of our activities we aim to maintain our integrity and professionalism, and
strive for continual improvement and innovation.
