ESG
Our commitment
At Langham Hall, we recognise that our role in the financial ecosystem extends beyond fund administration. We are committed to embedding ESG principles into our operations, reflecting our focus on sustainability, social responsibility and strong governance standards.
Environmental responsibility
We work with Alectro, an award-winning sustainability technology firm, to bring clarity and rigour to how we track, manage and reduce our carbon footprint. Using their Virtual Sustainability Officer platform, we have identified and acted on key impact areas across the group.
Between 2023 and 2025, we reduced our emissions per employee by 10%, from 1.15 tCO₂e to 1.03 tCO₂e per person. This reduction reflects practical changes across travel and commuting; procurement; and resource use, including materials, water and waste.
Our current priorities include:
Tracking our progress
We have reported consistently for three consecutive years and will continue to track progress transparently, with a commitment to driving further year-on-year reductions.
Social responsibility
Our people are central to Langham Hall’s success. We invest in talent through structured development, mentoring and apprenticeship opportunities, ensuring skills and leadership grow with the business. We also foster an inclusive workplace that supports equal opportunities.
We are proud to support a wide range of charitable causes and community-based initiatives that reflect our values and commitment to positive social impact. To learn more about our charitable work and how we are making a difference, please click here.
Governance excellence
Integrity and transparency are the cornerstones of our governance framework. We maintain high standards of compliance and ethical conduct, whilst continuing to strengthen our approach to ESG oversight at all levels of the business.
Beyond our own operations, we help fund managers meet their own ESG objectives – from navigating AIFMD requirements to ensuring robust and accountable investor disclosures. Our AR and AIFM teams provide the regulatory backbone that allows funds to pursue ESG goals with confidence, balancing fiduciary duty with evolving stakeholder expectations.
Our three pillar strategy
Measure
Through our partnership with Alectro, we track Scope 1–3 emissions across the group, providing the data needed to make informed decisions and monitor progress
Reduce
We continue to implement initiatives that cut emissions across commuting, business travel and procurement, delivering measurable year-on-year reductions
Substitute
We integrate sustainability criteria into procurement, prioritising refurbished and lower-impact IT equipment and encouraging greener travel options
Looking ahead
ESG is an ongoing journey. We will continue to:
- Set measurable ESG targets and report on our progress
- Engage with stakeholders to align our initiatives with their expectations
- Refine our strategies to strengthen environmental, social and governance performance
By embedding ESG into everything we do, Langham Hall aims to make a lasting, positive impact on the environment, society and our industry.
What stands out is the engagement of employees to integrate sustainability into their daily work, supported by a dedicated lead in each region to drive their global initiatives forward. Equally notable is the transparent approach taken externally, fostering trust and credibility.
Looking ahead, we are excited to see how Langham Hall continues to advance its operational carbon strategy and how these initiatives continue to drive positive impact across the business.
