Sustainable Investment

Our investment thesis involves an integrated engagement approach to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors.

We focus on ESG-related issues that may impact the long-term value of an investment. 

TD Epoch's approach is to consider ESG factors in a manner that is consistent with our fiduciary obligation to act in the best interests of our clients. As part of our investment process on behalf of TD Epoch clients, we assess whether ESG factors may have a material impact on either investment risk or return. We believe that:

  • Sustainable free cash flow generation and the effective allocation of capital drive long-term value creation. These, together with price and risk, determine risk-adjusted return.
  • Good corporate governance is essential to ensure that companies create long-term value for their investors.
  • The financial materiality of ESG factors often varies by industry, country, and company. Under our ESG Policy, we consider ESG factors which may impact returns and risk for our clients, and engage with management teams on financially material ESG issues.
