Working as a Team

At Candriam, we approach our profession as asset managers with passion and enthusiasm. Our employees work as a team every day to help you reach your objectives, guided by the values at the core of our identity: Conviction and Responsibility.

This work is based on mutual trust among our employees, and between you and us, just as the players on a team combine their strengths and talents to achieve victory.

 

Combining long-term vision with tactical adjustments

Managing portfolios means putting our strategic convictions to work, as well as remaining vigilant at all times to adjust to market conditions and take advantage of tactical opportunities to score a goal or lead a breakaway. It means combining our long-term vision with our responsiveness in order to constantly adapt to the changing field and change gear in the face of steep slopes.

 

Shared values

The values that we hold on a daily basis are also those of athletes: fair play and respect on the playing field, as well as in our business relationships, team spirit, agility and stamina… This is why we partner with those who share this spirit, in football, hockey and cycling.

Partners

Our hockey partnership

The Association Royale Belge de Hockey (ARBH), and more specifically the Red Panthers, the women’s field hockey team and the Red Lions, the men’s team (2018 world champion, 2019 European champion and 2020 Olympic champion).

Our cycling partnership

The Schleck Gran Fondo is a mass cycling event organised every year in Luxembourg, on the initiative of Frank Schleck, a legend of cycling. On the different courses, champions and amateurs share the road in a spirit of camaraderie and challenge, be it for simple pleasure or to push their limits - one of the races is qualifying for the World Championship!

Partnerships with meaning

With a presence in Belgium for more than 25 years, it was natural for Candriam to sponsor the Association Royale Belge de Hockey (ARBH) as a head partner in 2017. To support this sporting federation is also to support diversity in sport and young talents – a mission that particularly resonates with our commitments to supporting youth, to social inclusion, and to equal opportunity.

We share with the Forest Green Rovers FC a vision of a more responsible world. This club founded in 1889 in Gloucestershire, in the United Kingdom, is strongly committed to support a more sustainable world. It has been certified by the UN as the first club in the world with a neutral carbon footprint: a certified organic pitch, partial lighting of the stadium by solar panels, travel by electric vehicles or with carbon offsetting, vegan food for players and supporters, Eco Park under construction, etc.

Having worked for more than 25 years to promote sustainable investment, it was a natural step to join with this club, also a pioneer in its field for its commitment to the environment.

It is in this spirit that we support soft mobility such as cycling. The route of the Schleck Gran Fondo takes place on a grandiose circuit punctuated by impressive panoramas, celebrating nature and its beauty at every turn. For Candriam, being committed to protecting ecosystems means seizing every opportunity to have a positive impact on the environment!

In 2024, Candriam renewed its partnership with the Royal Belgian Hockey Association (ARBH) with the ambition to drive national teams towards excellence. Relive this event co-organized with Belfius in this video.
