Foresight divides its commitment to CSR into four segments:

marketplace

how they work with their customers and counterparties;

workplace

where they work, how they recruit and how they work with their staff;

environment

how they reduce their environmental impact; and

community

how they engage with the community.

Empowering the workforce of the future

Since returning to a state of ‘new normal’, post the Covid-19 health crisis. The Investment Manager has been able to re-establish its community outreach initiatives. This is aimed at providing guidance and financial skills training for children and young adults in the areas local to Foresight’s offices. Some initiative that Foresight has engaged on over the course of the year include:

  • Foresight staff involvement in the Finance Industry Programme with AmosBursary, an organisation which helps young people of African and Caribbean heritage to excel in education and other opportunities, providing insights and an introduction to financial services to over 30 students;
  • hosting a Careers Day for A-Level business students from the Sacred Heart School in London Bridge. Foresight staff have also visited the school for business and careers talks; and
  • partnering with Diversity VC on their Future VC programme to offer paid internships to talented individuals from diverse backgrounds and provide them with hands-on experience that will help them succeed in their chosen careers.

Charitable giving days

In 2019, Foresight launched an initiative that means employees can use a working day to volunteer for their chosen charity. They encourage all employees to utilise this day to give back to their communities and give their time to causes that are close to their heart.
This year Jen, Institutional Investor Relations Associate in the JLEN team, used her charitable giving day to search for a missing man with London Search and Rescue.

Corporate Culture

While JLEN does not have direct employees, it does have a corporate culture which is guided by JLEN’s engaged and proactive Board of Directors and the Investment Adviser, Foresight. As Investment Adviser to JLEN, Foresight believes an engaged and empowered workforce supports the Company’s purpose. Foresight seeks to co-ordinate and manage its corporate practices to maximise positive social and economic contributions and minimise the environmental impact of its business operations. The JLEN Board and Foresight meet on a weekly basis and this ensures good communication between these two key stakeholders. Engagement with key clients, employees, community, environmental stakeholders, regulators, business partners and suppliers is central to Foresight’s approach.
