Like any services firm our people are our most important asset and in this regard we are proud of our committed and highly experienced team. As an employer we aim to provide an exciting and rewarding work environment whilst fostering a culture of commitment to quality and high service standards.
What we are and what we are not
We are a passive investment asset administrator, not an active asset manager involved in making daily decision on which securities, properties or other assets to acquire or dispose of.
We provide investment management services in two ways:
- - Through the management of index SMA’s under licence with Standard & Poor’s; and
- - By partnering with competent active investment managers.
Our passive approach and independence in the investment decision making process means investment managers can be confident that any intellectual property they share with us is treated with strict confidentiality.
- - We are not financial advisers, stockbrokers or real estate agents, nor are we accountants.
- - We do not provide personal financial advisory services and prefer to deal with financial intermediaries.
Corporate Governance
In March 2003, the Australian Stock Exchange released its Principles of Good Corporate Governance and Best Practice Recommendations, which contains the following definition:
“Corporate Governance is the system by which companies are directed and managed. It influences how the objectives of the company are set and achieved, how risk is monitored and assessed, and how performance is optimised.” Good corporate governance structures encourage companies to create value (through entrepreneurism, innovation, development and exploration) and provide accountability and control systems commensurate with the risks involved.
Linear understands corporate governance is part of the broader corporate responsibility framework – it is about promoting fairness, transparency and accountability by setting out the rights and responsibilities of the Board, management and stakeholders in the company. We believe it involves everything from managing the social and environmental impacts of our business, understanding and responding to stakeholder priorities, being prepared to make short-term trade-offs for the sake of longer-term future gains, and have a real commitment to accountability and transparency.
