ESG

The consideration of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors is essential to OHA’s fundamental approach to credit investing as well as its own operations. OHA believes ESG analysis provides additional insight into an issuer’s creditworthiness. As such, it seeks to integrate ESG risks into its investment analysis and be an advocate for ESG-related issues when possible.
