Sign Here For Responsible Investing

What are the Principles for Responsible Investment and how do they relate to private equity? Rob Lake, Director of Responsible Investment at the Principles for Responsible Investment Initiative(often called the UNPRI), tackles these and other questions in an interview with Privcap.

Lake details the mission of the PRI, its history with the United Nations, what the PRI’s ambitions are within the global private equity market, why private equity’s investment model offers control advantages not afforded public-market investors, how US investors have reacted when asked to become signatories, and what Lake has learned about the importance of responsible investing from other asset classes.
