Title
Sustainable Private Equity
Description
Private equity has earned itself a reputation as an investment model that squeezes businesses dry and makes returns through high leveraging. As with all caricatures, this has some truth. But the change in the financial landscape, particularly the shortage of debt, has changed the game. Increasingly, returns to private equity investors have to come from real growth in the core business. This presentation looks at how some private equity firms are beginning to embed the idea of long-term sustainable growth into their management of investments.

Title
A Practical Approach to ESG Integration in a Private Equity Investment

Demonstration of introducing Environmental and Social systems, real costs and profits and real efforts and benefits. The challenge to translate academic and political E&S objectives into real day-to-day money-generating and value-enhancing propositions - the disappointment, frustration, amazement and satisfaction when something intangible like E&S systems and benchmarks is being implemented and is proving to generate real cash and enhance real value to a company.
