Sustainable food and agriculture: Investment deep dive

We're excited to share our first deep dive into thematic impact investing, which focuses on sustainable food and agriculture.

At Esmée Âé¶¹´«Ã½, we are building out our thematic-led investment strategy to explore how we might integrate Esmée’s strategy across our spectrum of capital. To help us do this, we are commissioning a series of ‘deep dive’ reports to explore investment opportunities for impact investing, which is impact-driven to support our mission and our main investment portfolio.

Written by Hayley Mole and Thomas Slattery, our first deep dive explores the theme of sustainable food and agriculture.

You can find links to download the full report and a summary report below.

We want to say a big thanks to Hayley and Thomas for their work on the report, as well as to everyone who gave their time in sharing their valuable insights.

If you'd like to get in touch to share your views or have any questions about our work, do send us an email at communications@esmeefairbairn.org.uk.
