Impact is driven by our values

We drive long-term performance by partnering with businesses that excel in managing ESG risks and opportunities.

Our Process

Our well-established investment selection criteria underpins our portfolios, which combines fundamental and ESG considerations of the investee companies with sectoral and geographic analysis. Our ESG due diligence process identifies material ESG controversies and evaluates our underlying companies’ ESG risk management practices.

Channel also undertakes an engagement approach on lower scoring entities, engaging with companies to gain insight into ESG risks and actively influence, through sustainability KPIs, the management of these factors in line with industry best-practiced standards.

The outcome is a firm that integrates sustainability into every step of the investment decision-making process, thereby avoiding companies with weak ESG performance or exposure to controversial activities and ultimately, sustainably generating attractive long term financial returns.

The Evidence

Corniche

Channel MENA

Channel’s unique origination footprint includes AUM deployment in the GCC region, an economically strong and well rated region with great demand for private asset-backed credit. There is a $250 billion funding gap alone in the GCC region including the UAE for small and medium sized enterprises (Source: A.T. Kearny). Channel has provided over $1 billion in cumulative funding to the GCC region since 2017, reducing further return correlation within its portfolios.

For investors, our asset-backed products delivered these strategies in a Sharia-compliant manner for the past 5-years. We have learned that Sharia principals and asset-backed finance actually go hand-in-hand and correlate to our ESG activities, and is aligned with our principles for finance to do no harm and support social impact. We are pleased to partner with leading Sharia-compliant advisors to structure and monitor these investments with care.
