About Impax Asset Management
Founded in 1998, Impax is a
specialist asset manager, with approximately £39.2 billion as of 29
February 2024 in both listed and private markets strategies,
investing in the opportunities arising from the transition to a
more sustainable global economy.
Impax believes that capital markets
will be shaped profoundly by global sustainability challenges,
including climate change, pollution and essential investments in
human capital, infrastructure and resource efficiency. These trends
will drive growth for well-positioned companies and create risks
for those unable or unwilling to adapt.
The company seeks to invest in
higher quality companies with strong business models that
demonstrate sound management of risk. Impax offers a well-rounded
suite of investment solutions spanning multiple asset classes
seeking superior risk-adjusted returns over the medium to long
term.
Impax has approximately 300
employees1 across its offices in
the United Kingdom, the United States, Ireland, Hong Kong and Japan
making it one of the investment management sector's largest
investment teams dedicated to sustainable development.
