Redefining active management
At NorthStar, active ownership is more than screening — it’s about shifting corporate behavior. We use proposals, letters and direct dialogue to press companies on equity, governance and sustainability. For institutional investors, that means your capital doesn’t sit quietly in the market — it actively drives accountability and systemic change. Your portfolio becomes a voice for justice.
impact you can see
We believe impact should be both transparent and tangible. That’s why we share results through detailed reports, quarterly updates and ongoing thought leadership — always connecting the dots between your investments and the real-world changes they influence. With every campaign, we track progress and highlight outcomes so you know exactly what difference your capital is making.
We make your impact visible — and verifiable.

From traditional markets that maximize financial returns to regenerative and transformational strategies that prioritize equity and sustainability, capital can be deployed in profoundly different ways.
