Transparency
3i is one of a few publicly listed private equity houses in our industry. Since listing in 1994, we have aimed to be amongst the best in our peer group, whether our peers are other listed companies of private equity firms. Our approach to transparency, just like our approach to corporate responsibility in general, is commercially driven and goes beyond compliance.
We believe that an open and straightforward approach builds trust and respect and that our success depends on the trust and respect of a growing number of different interested parties. This is why 3i enthusiastically supported the Walker Working Group in the UK, and was among the first in the sector to commit to comply with its guidelines. It also explains why 3i had the first corporate responsibility report in the sector, and now the first dedicated corporate responsibility website.
