We offer investment capabilities in public and private markets, with a focus on responsible investing.
- Active equities: characterised by proprietary fundamental, environmental, social and governance (ESG) and engagement research.
- Fixed income: value-seeking approach based on fundamental analysis, a macro perspective and rigorous security selection for diversified, risk-managed portfolios.
- Liquidity: solutions driven by four decades of experience.
- Private markets: real estate, infrastructure, private equity and debt.
- Stewardship: corporate engagement, proxy voting, policy advocacy. Our pioneering stewardship service, EOS at Federated Hermes (EOS), is key to our offering.
