About us
One of Europe’s leading investment firms, our vision is to reshape the future of investment.
Backed by BNP Paribas Group, we are a global investor with the scale, depth, and breadth to deliver for a more diverse range of clients.
Our Partnership Principles
Our firm is a recognition that investors have differing investment needs. Our philosophy and our solutions are designed to serve them all.
The BNP Paribas Asset Management Partnership Principles are central to this client-first approach.
We listen actively
Every partnership begins with clarity of understanding.
Our clients’ ambitions, priorities, and challenges are our starting point.
Listening actively allows us to shape strategies that are as unique as the clients we serve.
Because of our global perspective and deep expertise across markets and asset classes, we turn insight into competitive edge.
This is how lasting partnership is made.
We act decisively
Clarity drives conviction and ensures alignment of interests.
Once goals are defined, we think boldly and move incisively, guided by our insight, experience, and discipline.
Our entrepreneurial mindset and systems-thinking connect global trends with real-world opportunity, helping us see beyond market noise.
With deep expertise across traditional and alternative asset classes, we ensure our clients capture long-term value by navigating change.
This is how performance takes shape.
We deliver transparently
For us, partnership means accountability, to our clients, to our people, and to the world in which we invest.
We are driven by the trust placed in us and invest with conviction.
Managing risk and opportunity with discipline and foresight, we are focussed on delivery.
We build honest and open dialogue with the clients whose goals we serve.
This commitment endures through market cycles.
This is how trust is built.

Investments are subject to market fluctuations and the risks inherent in investments in securities. The value of investments and the income they generate may go down as well as up and it is possible that investors will not recover their initial investment. There is no guarantee that the performance objective will be achieved.
Some emerging markets offer less security than the majority of international developed markets. For this reason, services for portfolio transactions, liquidation and conservation on behalf of funds invested in emerging markets may carry greater risk.

Environmental, social and governance (ESG) investment risk: The lack of common or harmonised definitions and labels integrating ESG and sustainability criteria at EU level may result in different approaches by managers when setting ESG objectives. This also means that it may be difficult to compare strategies integrating ESG and sustainability criteria to the extent that the selection and weightings applied to select investments may be based on metrics that may share the same name but have different underlying meanings. In evaluating a security based on the ESG and sustainability criteria, the Investment Manager may also use data sources provided by external ESG research providers. Given the evolving nature of ESG, these data sources may for the time being be incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable. Applying responsible business conduct standards in the investment process may lead to the exclusion of securities of certain issuers. Consequently, (the Sub-Fund’s) performance may at times be better or worse than the performance of relatable funds that do not apply such standards.
