We are thrilled to present Churchill’s second annual Sustainability Report. Reflecting on the accomplishments of the past year, I am grateful for the many partnerships we’ve built. From collaborating with investors to refine our practices to engaging with organizations that provide invaluable insights to our investment teams, we are invigorated by the progress we have made together towards our sustainability goals.
This report reinforces our commitment to responsible investing and the value created from integrating best practices into our existing framework. We strive to maintain the highest levels of transparency and sustainable investment practices by considering multiple perspectives. Our second year of measuring our firm’s emissions is a continuation of our “practice what you preach” mindset, and we continue to guide our portfolio companies toward greater transparency.
2023 marked a transformative period for Churchill’s Responsible Investing team, with collaboration emerging as a recurrent theme. Working closely with our investor base, internal investment professionals, ESG vendors, the Nuveen Responsible Investing team, and the broader industry, we made significant strides in advancing our practices. These meaningful partnerships will continue to drive us towards setting more ambitious sustainability goals that we believe will deliver value for our firm and investors in 2024.
