Corporate responsibility

Adding value

3i has been investing and helping companies to grow for over 60 years. Our success is dependent upon the success of our portfolio, which in part is driven by the value that we can add. Experience of helping thousands of companies to grow across the world has taught us that we need to tailor our approach to each individual investment, adding strategic insights, experience and making relevant introductions at the appropriate time.

As a responsible investor, we also recognise that sustaining financial success is dependent, not just upon the right approach to corporate responsibility, but the right actions. Our experience helps us add value in this area as a company changes and grows, especially as it enters new markets.

However, 3i's reach, impact and added value goes beyond the direct value we add to our portfolio companies or to our shareholders, the investors in funds we manage or those who work for and with us.

As an investor

We view corporate responsibility from two perspectives: risk and opportunity. Both can have an impact on our portfolio companies, and so both can affect 3i’s financial success and reputation.

As a company

Our approach to corporate responsibility is commercially driven. We think it makes good business sense to manage our business in a way that generates financial returns for our investors, but also seeks to make a positive contribution to our people, those we work with, and the economies, environment and local communities in which we operate.
