Our Social Framework: Global Listed Infrastructure

At Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management, our mission is to preserve and create wealth for our clients and our society in a sustainable way.

We believe strongly that ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) forms an integral part of the evolving toolkit for selecting resilient and risk-adjusted investments over the long term. In the investment landscape, it is crucial not to
sideline the ‘S’ or the Social component when discussing and analysing ESG. This component bears significant long-term financial materiality that is often overlooked.

In this paper, we explain why the social component is financially material, and share
our framework for assessing how this risk is addressed in Infrastructure.
