“We aim to help companies and investors improve their businesses, and to provide smart, motivated people with opportunities to do their best work.”
We design and execute sustainability strategies that strengthen our clients’ position with investors, employees, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders.
We work with leading investors to integrate ESG into their portfolios to lower risk, add shareholder value and achieve long-term returns with positive environmental and social outcomes.
System-level investing focuses on addressing large-scale environmental, social and financial challenges that can affect long-term performance across investment portfolios and markets. It is based on the idea that investors – particularly large asset owners – can influence the systems they invest in through capital allocation and stewardship activities. It also acknowledges that many of the biggest risks to long-term returns come from systemic issues, such as climate change, income inequality, and economic stability.
Asset owners support healthy economies by providing necessary capital and using their influence to drive stable financial systems. In 2020 and 2024, Quinn+Partners collaborated with a major Canadian pension to conduct global landscape reviews of responsible investment (RI) practices among leading asset owners. These findings offer actionable insights for asset owners to refine their strategies, navigate risk and create long-term value for beneficiaries.
For a third year, we are pleased to share Quinn+Partners’ pay equity data in honour of International Women’s Day, celebrated earlier this month. A fair and inclusive workplace is one where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. We believe that when people who identify as women are treated respectfully and equitably, it not only empowers them but also drives organizational growth and well-being.
