Of course, we've only ever been able to elicit responses from those minded to respond to a survey on this subject. So I cannot whole market. But the statistics are persuasive. Engagement is at an all time high and is being elevated to leadership, with 81% of respondents reporting ESG matters to their Boards at least once a year. The approach to the responsible investment agenda is maturing. 81% of respondents have a responsible investment Over the three years since our last survey, progress has been rights, whilst new themes, such as climate risk, have emerged. Much remains to be done, whether it's in monitoring and reporting, climate risk or valuing ESG initiatives. Even so, if the development of the responsible investment agenda can be compared to the seven stages of human development, opportunities on the horizon. ESG matters may become the next multiple arbitrage lever. When implemented effectively, ESG programmes can protect and create value (including for poorer ESG performers), with positive consequences for exit multiples.

The PE industry's appetite for responsible

investment is steadily growing.

Private equity houses and their

investors are increasingly factoring ESG considerations into their investment decisions and portfolio management strategies. Such considerations are becoming embedded in all stages of the deal cycle: from deal selection to engagement during the hold period, to monitoring and reporting. ESG issues have moved from niche to mainstream, with 81% of our respondents having adopted a responsible investment policy and 81% also reporting ESG matters to their Boards at least once a year. The drivers for the PE industry's growing appetite for responsible investment vary, with 'risk management' again driver. This could be a sign that responsible investment is being perceived as the 'right thing to do'.While LP pressure is still one of the driving factors, its highlighting, perhaps, that GPs now largely share the same responsible investment agenda as LPs. There was a higher correlation between concern and taking action on emerging issues than in our previous surveys. Respondents indicate that they are not only concerned about bigger risk factors such as human rights or climate change, long-term. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is on the rise in the increasingly considered a common global language, with the potential to guide and shape investment strategies. While it's clear that the responsible investment agenda is slowly but steadily becoming mainstream, an important point to note is that its uptake seems to be higher in certain parts of the world compared to others. As can be seen from our engaging on responsible investment issues than elsewhere.
