About us

Who we are

Developing superior ideas requires an innovative nature and a pioneering spirit. That’s why we nurture a culture in which new ideas are welcomed and embraced, from investing in Peru in 1930 and Hong Kong in 1968, active in sustainability since 1995.

Today, we are a global asset manager with an established international presence and a strong research-led culture. We push our boundaries because we believe innovation is grounded in research.

On a mission

Every day, our mission is supported by our core values: to be innovative, to create connection in whatever we do, and to be sustainable – acting responsibly for Robeco and society.

We are researchers

Our true brand strength, was developed by failing first. A year after the company was founded, half of our launch capital was gone in the aftermath of the Wall Street crisis. It was a tough start, but it helped shape a research-driven mindset that has remained central to the way we think and work ever since. And this still drives us today. We analyze hard facts and data. Every innovative idea is tested rigorously, over and over, before it becomes part of the way we work. That’s why we call ourselves ‘The Investment Engineers’.

We are connectors

We create and nurture connections between all our stakeholders, including our employees, our clients, our industry, NGOs and academia. To facilitate this we share ideas and knowledge, actively engage and learn from each other, and are truly open to different opinions. Connection also requires a culture that is open and inclusive for everybody regardless of race, gender, sexual identity and background. Diverse people naturally will come up with diverse ideas and views: essential for our long-term success.

We are sustainable

Robeco is committed to sustainability as an important part of its corporate identity, with a long-standing focus in this area since the early 1990s.

But for us, sustainability needs to be research-driven, and rooted in our behavior. We have a clear net-zero commitment and understand that sustainability is not an abstract concept but part of our daily lives. It’s present in everything from consumption and travel to attitude and a general understanding of what society and the planet demand so that the choices we make today don’t compromise the needs of the world tomorrow.

Today, we are part of ORIX Europe, a subsidiary of ORIX Corporation, a Japanese business conglomerate based in Tokyo, Japan. ORIX stems from a combination of the word ‘original’ signifying creativity, and the symbol ‘X’ meaning infinity and representing flexibility and diversity. The name signifies the pioneering pursuit of innovation and organic unity of the Group.
