Our history and values

After experiencing in previous positions that investors interested in sustainable and responsible investments needed the support of unconflicted independent advisors and that these were difficult to find, Ivo Knoepfel founded onValues in 2002.  From the outset the company focused on providing truly independent advice to asset owners.
onValues’ key values are:

• Working with our clients as a true partner, providing them with timely and best-quality advice and taking on responsibility for the successful implementation of projects
• Cultivating an approach that focuses on independent, unconventional, ‘out-of-the-box’ thinking that provides our clients and partners with truly innovative ideas and services
• Being open, fair, honest and challenging in all our activities, as well as always applying highest professional ethical standards
• Focusing on the creativity, knowledge and personal development of our employees and advisors as our major asset
• Contributing to sustainable development and market building by engaging in public initiatives and publishing key results of our research.
