A cross-asset sustainability specialist

Investing responsibly since 2009

We offer a range of transition-focused solutions across equities and fixed income, working with clients to deliver bespoke solutions for every investment objective.

OUR HISTORY

Built on Experience

Our team brings together academics, environmental specialists and investment professionals to design sophisticated portfolios shaped by evidence and experience.

Founding principle

Osmosis was founded on the principle that sustainable companies would offer better long-term value, and that allocators of capital carry a responsibility to deliver both positive financial and environmental outcomes for their investors.

15 years of insight

We have spent the last fifteen years exploring how environmental, economic and societal change can influence investment outcomes - building the research capabilities, proprietary datasets, and investment processes to turn that understanding into investment insight.

A long-term vision

This long-term commitment matters. Our approach has been developed over many years, through different market cycles and changing attitudes towards sustainability, rather than in response to market sentiment.

Our Philosophy

The Economics of Sustainability

Environmental, economic and societal change is reshaping what makes a business competitive, resilient and valuable. Through proprietary research we seek to understand those forces, and how effectively businesses respond to them.

Where sustainability-related factors can be measured objectively and linked to economic outcomes, we believe they can help identify stronger businesses, emerging risks and overlooked opportunities.

Ultimately, companies that adapt, use capital intelligently and respond effectively to a changing world should be better positioned to create long-term value.
