At BNP Paribas Asset Management, we want to make a positive difference to people’s futures by focusing on achieving long-term sustainable investment returns. That is why we have committed to putting sustainability at the heart of our strategy. At the core of all our investment processes, analysts and portfolio managers integrate a consideration of relevant ESG factors into their company, asset and sovereign evaluation and investment decision-making processes.

We also seek to deliver long-term sustainable returns through:

Long-term: fundamental factors drive valuations over the longer term, rewarding patient investors.

Research driven: quality investment performance is best generated through open minds being applied to in-depth research.

Global perspective: in an increasingly interconnected world, a global perspective is needed to make better investment decisions.

Augmented investment approach: human and artificial intelligence, when skilfully combined, lead to better investment decisions and improved risk management.

Emphasis on risk management: the value created through our research and idea generation needs to be carefully preserved by using risk appropriately.
