Bridge Core Values

Excellence

We take pride in our performance and celebrate our achievements. We do what is right – for the right reasons.

Empowerment

We empower our people to reach their full potential and cultivate a diverse and inclusive culture of disciplined analysis and action. We believe that diversity is the only path to excellence.

Accountability

We stand behind our word and strive for continuous improvement in all that we do. We face facts and realities, and we embrace challenges.

Specialization

We develop specialized investment and operating teams which have deep sectoral knowledge of the areas in which we invest. We use data, carefully analyzed and fully vetted, to complement decades of experience in guiding our investment decisions.

Teamwork

We emphasize teamwork in everything we do and thrive on collaboration, hard work, and open and honest communication. We forge strong and inclusive relationships, trust each other, and win as a team.

Creativity & Innovation

We consistently reexamine how we operate and seek innovative solutions to drive performance at the asset level, strategy level, and corporate level. New ideas are carefully examined and adopted if appropriate.

Responsibility

We seek to invest and operate responsibly and believe that strong corporate and individual citizenship go hand-in-hand. We believe that responsible investing can enhance risk and return characteristics through deliberate and thoughtful integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) best practices.

Employee Resource Groups

Bridge’s Employee Resource Groups were created to drive inclusivity, open dialogue, and sponsorship of diverse individuals and we look forward to launching more groups in the future.

Our people and capital enable high-quality, affordable housing, inspire education and the well-being of children and youth, and better the environment in which we all work and live. Bridge Charitable Giving is centered around four pillars: Enabling Housing, Child Welfare, Education & Environmental Stewardship.
