BNPP AM aims to generate long-term sustainable returns for its clients, based on a sustainability-driven approach. BNPP AM focuses its expertise on five core capabilities - High Conviction Active Strategies, Emerging Markets, Private Assets, Systematic, Quantitative & Index, and Liquidity Solutions - with investment processes incorporating quantitative, ESG[1] and fundamental research. These capabilities can be combined into multi-asset solutions aligned with our clients’ goals.
Sustainability is core to BNPP AM’s strategy and investment philosophy. Among the leaders in thematic investment in Europe[2], BNPP AM intends to contribute to a successful Energy transition, healthy Ecosystems, and greater Equality in our societies (our “3Es”). BNPP AM currently manages EUR 576 billion of assets and benefits from the expertise of more than 500 investment professionals and around 400 client servicing specialists, serving individual, corporate and institutional clients in 68 countries.
Our investment products and solutions are built around a deep understanding of our client goals and how they will change. We seek to deliver long-term sustainable returns through:
- Conviction-driven: in a changing world, our conviction-based investment philosophy provides scope to capture both short and long-term opportunities for value creation. Our approach combines a thorough understanding of market dynamics and fundamentals (at security, sector, thematic levels), enabling high conviction positions and a dynamic allocation of capital across varied time horizons.
- Sustainable: By integrating sustainability considerations across our investment processes, we believe we create the opportunity to deliver better outcomes for our clients, markets and the planet.
- Research-driven: research is the foundation on which we build our markets’ views to support our convictions. We apply both quantitative and fundamental approach to our research with a culture of curiosity, collaboration, and challenge.
- Global perspective: In an increasingly interconnected world, a global perspective is needed to make better investment decisions.
- Powered by people: People drive investment decisions. We are committed to attracting, nurturing, and retaining our diversity of talent. We align incentives to our clients’ long term sustainable objectives.
- Risk management: the value created through our research and idea generation needs to be carefully preserved through appropriate risk utilization.
