ESG and DEI

Illu 1 Illu 2

As part of ABS Capital’s commitment to building strong emerging growth companies for the long-term, we support the integration of ESG and DEI initiatives across the Firm and within our portfolio companies.

We believe that transforming successful growing businesses into enduring industry leaders is best achieved when growth and responsibility are aligned. As a result, we recognize the importance of incorporating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) considerations into our investment decisions and ongoing Firm management. We have designed policies to evaluate the ESG and DEI standards and activities of both ABS Capital and our partners, and we aim to partner with those who will operate with similar standards of responsible principles and integrity.

ESG and DEI values

Since our founding, ABS Capital has maintained high ethical standards, strong governance and a commitment to our communities and our people. We have formalized our dedication to those principles in our ESG and DEI Values.
