We invest with purpose and lead with expertise to build secure financial futures

CORPORATE SOCIAL IMPACT AT PANTHEON

Pantheon’s culture reflects a responsible attitude and approach into every aspect of our daily activities, including how we conduct ourselves as a firm, as individuals and as professionals.

Our Corporate Social Impact strategy reflects our wider mission to act with purpose and support more secure financial futures. It includes a focus on four key pillars – inclusion and diversity, wellbeing, charitable initiatives and social engagement – each of which is coordinated by a Pantheon committee made up of colleagues from across our functions.
