Responsible investments

Norwegian Hull Club is - and aims to remain - a responsible investor. Active corporate governance, international conventions, and integration of sustainability topics into asset management form the basis of responsible investments.

The foundation of Norwegian Hull Club’s investment philosophy is the conviction that strong corporate governance, combined with a focus on environmental and social issues, is instrumental for long-term profitability. The best investments over time are those made in well-managed companies that, in addition to strong business performance, apply a systematic and integrated approach to sustainability to protect and grow future cashflows. Such companies will also be best able to manage risk associated with environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. Sustainability and ESG are, therefore, integral parts of the investment manager screening and selection process.

Norwegian Hull Club uses third-party asset managers for security selection, through funds and discretionary mandates. Responsible investment is a key consideration when selecting external asset managers. In general, asset managers continue to improve their abilities within the field of sustainable investments as clients and society increase expectations.

Norwegian Hull Club primarily seeks external asset managers that:

  • Are signatories to UN Principles for responsible investments (Norms-based screening)
  • Are transparent about ESG issues
  • Apply a systematic and integrated approach to sustainability factors in their investment processes (ESG integration)
  • Report on ESG
  • Seek investments with positive ESG effects that do not require financial trade-off
