When conducting due diligence, we consider all of these parameters both at that time as well as over the history of the asset. We conduct robust due diligence with the objective of investing in projects and companies that are well-managed and where the range of ESG aspects and impacts are such that the mine operates sustainably over the long term to protect our investments and reputation, along with those of our stakeholders and investors.
We do not and will not invest in opportunities that fail to meet our strict set of performance standards in any one of these areas, regardless of the apparent economic merit. For example, we do not invest in any opportunities that involve riverine tailings disposal, child labor or forced labor. Post-investment, we continue to track our partners' ESG-related metrics, most of which are disclosed in their public filings or websites.
We believe that optimal ESG performance helps ensure that: the mines and projects we invest in are operated and developed responsibly to protect worker health, safety and the environment; social impacts are identified, managed and mitigated; human rights are respected; and benefits accrue to local communities and a broad range of stakeholders. Strong ESG performance by our partners helps ensure that our investments enjoy the privilege to operate from those affected by mining, protecting our business and shareholders and, ultimately, our reputation.
