Beta Capital is working on incorporating sustainability factors, such as environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors in its investment policy and integrate them in the risk assessment along with its decision process to comply with the Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 on sustainability‐related disclosures in the financial services sector, commonly known as SFDR.
Although ESG factors are not yet included in Beta Capital’s investment policy, it is its expectation that its investment decisions do not have a significant adverse impact in terms of sustainability, since its philosophy is to support projects attempting to contribute to a better life.
Beta Capital is then reviewing its policies and procedures to ensure that its investment analysis and due diligence processes take in consideration the principal adverse impact of investment decisions on sustainability factors (sustainability risks).
Beta Capital is also analysing its remuneration policy to check if it complies with SFDR or if changes are needed.
It is its expectation to comply with SFDR on 30 June 2022.
