We Take a proactive, committed approach to responsible investing

Our approach ensures that financial performance aligns with operational efficiency, sustainability, and long-term resilience.

A UNIQUE RESPONSIBLE
INVESTMENT PLAYBOOK

Tailwater has developed robust infrastructure and reporting that allows us to be stewards of resilience and sustainability to our portfolio companies and investors and, ultimately, to drive both investment returns and stakeholder value in the communities in which we do business.

Responsible investment Statement of Purpose 2024 Responsible Investment Report

In 2022, Tailwater became a signatory to the United Nations-supported Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), deepening our commitment to responsible leadership throughout the industry.

In 2023, Tailwater became a member of the ESG Data Convergence Initiative (EDCI) in its continued stewardship of transparency and sustainable benchmarking within the private equity sector.

Guided by the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) we are taking action to ensure our investment strategy positively impacts global issues and reinforce our commitment to sustainability.

We have taken guidance from the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (‘SDGs’) to identify where our investment strategy can positively impact key global issues and believe our portfolio activities have alignment with several of the indicators of the SDGs.
