Sustainability

Building Value Where It Counts


Our commitment to growth-oriented investing is one of the many ways we are a successful steward of our investors’ capital. As we identify these growth opportunities and the potential to create lasting value, we incorporate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors into our investment process and day-to-day operations.

Our sustainability strategy is built around a global framework that, we believe, is designed to allow us to adapt the most relevant, actionable, and practical elements for our diversified and flexible investing mandate.”


Corporate Governance

Warburg Pincus has a rigorous Code of Ethics, Compliance Manual, and Personal Trading Policy, as well as an Oversight Committee that assists with internal policies and procedures relating to compliance matters. Our governance practices include:

  • Conducting annual training programs and testing to help ensure that all employees fully comply with our Code of Ethics and other firm policies, including policies relating to compliance with anti-bribery regulations
  • Investing our own capital alongside our investors
  • Not taking any deal, advisory, board, or monitoring fees1
  • Holding seats on the boards of the vast majority of our portfolio companies and encouraging best practices in their corporate governance

We believe effective governance is essential to growth and success. That’s why we make available frameworks and processes to our portfolio companies as needed, which they can adapt to their own operations and cultures.
