Sustainability

Helping our clients navigate through transitions

Our approach to sustainability

At Van Lanschot Kempen, we see sustainability not only as an urgent need, but also an unprecedented opportunity to create value over the long term. Because preserving and creating wealth for generations to come is only possible when we make sure that growth is both profitable and sustainable. 

The world around us is changing – demanding fundamental transitions in how we consume e.g. energy, food and materials. We’re focused on helping our clients navigate through these transitions, with an active, engaged approach based on our strong investment principles. Sustainability is therefore embedded throughout our services. We have set clear targets on all areas in which we as Van Lanschot Kempen have an impact – and regularly report our progress.
