How We Work
As an independent advisory firm, CGC takes a pragmatic approach to ESG integration. We meet our clients “where they are”, deciphering their motivations and ambitions, and delivering actionable solutions utilizing proprietary tools and methodologies. We take a comprehensive and customized approach to every client mandate and recognize the important distinctions between ESG integration at the corporate level and at the investment level, offering strategic and tactical solutions that allow our clients to reach their goals while also engaging their stakeholders’ interests. We work with clients across asset classes, industries, and jurisdictions, advising on the global ESG integration and maturity issues facing asset managers, asset owners, and corporates.
