CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Sustainable Business Operations
Our direct environmental impact stems primarily from the operations of our office buildings around the world. We strive to manage these offices in an efficient and environmentally sustainable manner, and we continue to find new and innovative ways to reduce our carbon footprint. Our current initiatives focus on energy and greenhouse gas reductions, limiting paper waste, increasing recycling efforts, advising on sustainable transactions, and encouraging employees to use environmentally-friendly forms of transportation.
Environmental & Social Guidelines
We are committed to the highest standards of ethical behavior in our business activities and holds all stakeholders to these same standards. As part of our environmental and social risk management practices, we make it a priority to carefully evaluate and understand each client’s business, sector, and reputation as a company. As part of our tailored approach to financial advisory, we work side-by-side with our clients on potential environmental and social risk, suggesting more sustainable practices when necessary. Ensuring the implementation of sustainable practices ultimately serves the long-term interest of our clients, our Firm, and the communities in which we work and live.
Community Engagement
We are committed to responsible corporate citizenship. Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program focuses on supporting the local communities where we have a presence, with an emphasis on education. Through volunteerism and group fundraising efforts, our global CSR program fosters teamwork within the Firm while making a positive impact and strengthening the communities where our skills and resources can make a difference.
