Milford was formed in 2003 by an experienced group of individuals who recognised the need for an investment company that provides New Zealanders with a world class investment partner they can trust. Today, the Milford team comprises more than 70 passionate and talented individuals across offices in Auckland, Christchurch, Wanaka and Sydney. We all share one common purpose – to deliver the best investment outcomes and client service. Milford believes that proactively managing ESG considerations will deliver stronger long-term investment returns. Milford and Milford’s clients are partial owners of the companies we invest in and we rely on management and boards to make the correct decisions to achieve superior environmental, social, and financial performance. Therefore, Milford believes good corporate governance is particularly important. As an active manager, engaging with companies on ESG matters is an important aspect of Milford’s investment approach which includes encouraging companies to appropriately disclose and adopt better ESG practices. Milford utilises several approaches to ESG in the investment process but believes integration of ESG factors and active company engagement allow for the most comprehensive understanding of ESG risk and opportunity, and for the delivery of superior company ESG outcomes. Milford believes that the investment industry has a joint responsibility to promote acceptance and implementation by companies of ESG considerations.
