Castelnau Group Ltd (LSE:CGL) CEO Richard Brown and chief investment officer Gary Channon, who is also the founder of Phoenix Asset Management Partners Limited, discuss their investment approach and future plans in an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion. Channon elaborated on their investment philosophy, inspired by Warren Buffett, focusing on high-return businesses they can understand, monitor, and buy at attractive prices. The inception of Castelnau was driven by the desire for permanent capital to own and enhance businesses indefinitely, integrating modern techniques into traditional businesses, symbolised by the name 'Castelnau' - new castles. Their strategy involves control and risk reduction, starting with initial companies in insurance and improvement positions.

Friends and colleagues! Please join me at the upcoming Private Equity International Responsible Investment Forum in NYC. I will be on a panel talking about the ROI of sustainability for private equity managers and their portfolio companies. #sustainablefinance #roi

From 2019 until the end of 2022, private-market equity investors launched more than 330 new sustainability; environmental, social, and governance (ESG); and impact funds. The cumulative assets under management in these funds grew threefold, from $90 billion to more than $270 billion. Those figures do not include the significant amount of capital earmarked for climate opportunities in corporate capital budgets, public-equity investment vehicles, and credit funds. - McKinsey & Co Investments in climate technology are still increasing, defying the headwinds that affected most capital markets. Limited partners, employees and customers are all asking for quantifiable progress from GPs/funds around their investment strategies that would help catalyze and scale climate innovation. Join me at Private Equity International's Responsible Investment Forum as I chat with James Mackey (Climate Investment (CI)), Valerie Shen (G2 Venture Partners) and Zachary Montebell (NY Green Bank) about how their organizations are defining and navigating impact within climate investing, drivers and challenges when making such investments and how they assess risk and opportunity for promising innovations emerging in this space. #sustainabilityvaluecreation #climateinvesting #energytransition #climateinnovation #justtransition #impactinvesting
