Responsible investing
We are convinced that responsible investing with attention for people, planet and prosperity combined with a long-term view contributes to sustainable value creation for all stakeholders involved.
We are convinced that responsible investing with attention for people, planet and prosperity combined with a long-term view contributes to sustainable value creation for all stakeholders involved.
Hence our mission is “To create real, sustainable value for our companies and our investors by leveraging knowledge, resources and network.
We believe that responsible investment is much more about intentions and culture than about ticking off items on a list. As a company, investor or individual, do you make the right choice at the important moments? Taking into account the interests of all stakeholders, focussing on the long-term, aiming for a sustainable future for people, planet and prosperity? Bolster wants to be a valuable and reliable business partner that invests in long-term relationships and builds sustainable value creation, in good times and bad times. Everyone can keep us to that promise.
ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) is an integral part of all of Bolster’s investment activities, from research and due diligence phase to investment period and final exit.
Every year, we use this report to update our investors and our companies about sustainability developments at Bolster and its portfolio companies. By also publishing our ESG reporting, we aim to be transparent about the steps we have taken on sustainability on the one hand and to inspire and motivate our stakeholders to make progress on issues that are important to them on the other.
