Our private equity and real estate strategies are anchored in a forward-thinking approach, emphasizing long-term value creation. We meticulously design action plans that not only aim for robust financial returns but also integrate sustainability at their core. This dual focus ensures that our portfolio companies and assets are managed with a commitment to enduring success and responsible stewardship.
Recognition for our approach
In 2011, we committed to integrating responsible investment practices across all our activities by becoming a signatory of the UN-backed Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). Since then, our dedication to responsible investment has been consistently recognized through PRI assessments. In 2020, we achieved the highest rating of A+ for the "Strategy and Governance" module and an A for the "Private Equity" module. Our commitment was further acknowledged in 2021, when we received four out of five stars, with scores of 67/100 for the "Investment and Stewardship Policy" module and 77/100 for the "Direct – Private Equity" module.
"Addressing environmental challenges and advancing the energy transition are urgent imperatives. We are steadfast in our commitment to intensify our efforts in these critical areas."

Responsible investment as a source of innovation and opportunity
We firmly believe that responsible investment is a catalyst for innovation and opportunity. While each company presents unique challenges, we recognize the pivotal role of shareholders in navigating both immediate and long-term obstacles. Success hinges on a deep understanding of market dynamics, evolving expectations, and the development of sustainable business models that not only ensure social acceptance but also deliver a positive impact. This approach requires identifying optimal strategies amidst often conflicting aspirations.
Our commitment extends to our real estate investments, where we focus on repositioning assets to meet the highest environmental standards. Achieving the latest and most stringent environmental certifications has become an essential prerequisite in our investment strategy
