Artisan Partners' purpose is to generate and compound wealth over the long-term for our clients. The wealth we generate improves retirement outcomes, pays for education, funds charitable purposes and in general improves people's lives. We are proud of our track record for the people we serve and are dedicated to continuing to improve it.
In addition to delivering for clients, we promote success across a diverse group of associates and create sustainable financial outcomes for our shareholders. Operating ethically and with integrity are fundamental to Who We Are and to the sustainability of our firm.
We are proud to present our second annual Sustainability/ESG Report. In it, we describe our Environmental, Social and Governance practices and policies, and we highlight updates made in 2019.
We also encourage you to read our CEO's 2018 letter to clients, associates and shareholders, entitled A Sustainable Firm, available here.
