Sustainability

Contribution

Green energy for 1.5 million households

We contribute to the energy transition and a decarbonized future by managing funds that invest in the energy infrastructure space. The impact is tangible: investments made on behalf of our clients will generate enough renewable energy over the next 25 years to power 1.5 million households.

Above all, we believe that responsibility toward the environment and society is a key factor driving the long-term success of our funds’ portfolio companies. We strive to incorporate social and environmental considerations across all aspects of our work, especially within each investment decision.

During acquisition, we carry out a thorough due diligence process, evaluating compliance with environmental, health and safety (EHS) regulations as well as governance and corporate social responsibility (CSR) best practices. Continuous analysis, tracking and monitoring of ESG topics (Environmental Social Governance) is also a key part of investment management. This guarantees that our investments are always aligned with the standards of our institutional investor base, and enhances our technical, operating and legal risk management.

ESG Memberships

To underscore our commitment to sustainability, we became a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) in early 2021. This is a deliberate, voluntary pledge that we will incorporate environmental, social and governance topics across our scope of work. As part of our pledge, we make the commitment to annually report on our company-wide ESG efforts to align ourselves with broader objectives of society and remain at the forefront of responsible investing.

 

 

 

 

To further strengthen our commitment to sustainability in the eyes of all our stakeholders (clients, shareholders, employees, partners, etc.) and to increase our knowledge and expertise in responsible investing, we became a member of Swiss Sustainable Finance. Through our membership, we actively support the financial industry’s efforts toward a more sustainable system that better mitigates sustainability impacts and serves the needs of society. Our participation allows us to engage in an established knowledge-sharing and cooperative platform with access to education resources, best practices and sustainable investing frameworks and tools.
