An Investment in Our Shared Future
ESG
An Investment in Our Shared Future
At Arcline, we seek to invest in companies that are meaningful to the world and enable a better future. We employ an investment thesis founded in identifying companies whose products and services impact the greater good.
We believe that environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors can fuel returns when proactively fostered and can be detrimental to returns when ignored. Our team understands that evaluating and monitoring ESG performance of the companies in which we invest can contribute to the success of our investment thesis.
“Our vision is to build meaningful to the world businesses that enable a better future.”
– Rajeev Amara, Chief Executive Officer
Principles + Implementation
We are committed to investing in companies offering solutions that are relevant to the future needs of our society, including in sustainability, climate change, health and safety, and life saving technologies.
“Arcline is committed to DE&I across the portfolio and is inspired by the UN SDG goal of Gender Equality. We actively seek to ensure equal opportunities for women and other underrepresented groups at all levels of leadership.”
– Jackie Chapin, VP of Talent
We are proud to be a founding partner of Ownership Works, a nonprofit with a mission to increase prosperity through shared ownership at work.
Arcline is committed to helping to implement employee ownership programs that create economic opportunity for working families, advance racial equity, enhance employee engagement and build stronger companies. Learn more about the organization here.
Team
Insight Through Collaboration
Leadership
Our leadership team, which has worked together for an average of 16 years prior to founding Arcline, has built a low hierarchy organizational structure that is designed to empower team members to communicate openly, be creative, and make quick decisions. We believe the result is an uncommon degree of emergent behavior which fosters predictable yet unimaginable outcomes.
