Responsible Investing

Responsible Investing is integral to our dual purpose: to deliver Better, Faster and More Accessible Healthcare™, whilst achieving superior financial returns.

GHO’s purpose to deliver Better, Faster and More Accessible healthcare shapes our Responsible Investing framework, investment activities, the way we work with our portfolio companies and the way we run GHO as a firm.

Our fifth Annual Responsible Investing Report illustrates how the two sides of our Responsible Investing strategy, offence and defence, work together to deliver Better, Faster and More Accessible healthcare for the global healthcare system, delivering long-term value for our stakeholders and targeting superior returns for our investors.

Our comprehensive Responsible Investment Policy sets out our guiding principles and commitments to act as responsible stewards of our investors’ capital, while raising internal awareness on the importance of Responsible Investment considerations at every step of our investment process.

Independent, cross-industry panel of leading advisors to support GHO Capital’s strategy, whilst maintaining the highest standards of Responsible Investing.

In 2023, we established a Purpose Advisory Council comprised of external impartial specialists to support, advise and challenge GHO on fulfilling its strategy of Better, Faster and More Accessible healthcare. The advisory council will also support GHO in remaining aligned with its responsible investment principles, policies and actions and support its Funds II, III and IV.

Caroline, Lisa, Clarke and Sacha bring a mix of valuable experience, including specialisation in delivering financially valuable and purposeful outcomes while reducing risk, identifying key mindsets and characteristics needed in management teams to trigger responsible business approaches, and academic rigour of measurement.

Chaired by Dame Caroline Mason, the Purpose Advisory Council will support, scrutinise, critique and promote GHO’s systems to deliver a Better, Faster, and More Accessible Healthcare system as it increases the scale of its investment activities through its Offence and Defence Strategies as detailed in its Responsible Investment Policy. The council is also supported by Andrea Ponti, Founder and Managing Partner, Robert Saltrick from GHO’s Investment Team and the Responsible Investing Team.

The Partners at GHO Capital commented: “At GHO Capital, we invest in healthcare with purpose, with the intention of creating positive contributions to society. We are confident that this group, and their extensive experience across industries, will support even greater our offence and defence responsible investing strategies, ultimately making us better investors and building value across our portfolio as we work to achieve Better, Faster, and More Accessible healthcare for the benefit of all.”

The Chair of the Purpose Advisory Council will report to the firm formally at least once per year and more frequently as required.
