ESG
integration

Our approach to ESG integration is thoughtful, practical, research-based, and forward-looking

We identify financially material Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) issues, and leverage our long-standing focus on deep research to assess the impact of these issues on companies’ cashflows, valuations, and discount rates.

Responsible investing highlights

As investment professionals, our first responsibility is, and always has been, to our clients' interests and goals – growing and smartly managing their capital and fulfilling our fiduciary responsibilities. Client demand is also increasing for us to invest with processes that incorporate financially material ESG and sustainability factors. We are recognised as a corporate and as an investor for our strong Responsibility practices.

Our stewardship approach

Stewardship is an integral and natural part of Janus Henderson’s long-term, active approach to investment management.



Strong ownership practices, such as management engagement can help protect and enhance long-term shareholder and bondholder value, and proxy voting practices, can also influence long-term shareholder value.
