Sustainable & Responsible Investing
Nexus Point is committed to being an upstanding corporate citizen and advancing sustainability interests in the communities in which we and our portfolio companies operate. We believe that sustainability plays a significant role in the long-term performance of a company, hence our sustainability and responsible investing philosophy is integrated into our evaluation, investment, value creation processes as well as the Firm’s operations.


Our
Integrated Approach
Sustainability is integrated throughout our investment processes including evaluation, investment, and value creation processes.

Dedicated Sustainability Team and Mindset
Our commitment to sustainability is ingrained throughout all levels of the Firm. Our in-house Sustainability Officer works closely with the investment team and other members of the Firm to ensure that both our firm and our portfolio companies have a comprehensive reporting framework, and are striving to make continuous improvements.

Influence Through
Active Ownership
We continuously engage with each of our portfolio companies to improve corporate behaviour and align it with our sustainability policies. With our control-oriented strategy, we are able to more effectively promote long-term, positive change at our portfolio companies on sustainability issues.

Transparent
Reporting
We collect sustainability-related data regularly from our portfolio companies and support them to advance relevant principles consistent with our policies. Additionally, we have continuous open dialogues with our investors regarding the reporting and disclosure of sustainability initiatives and results.

Committed to Act in the Best Long-Term Interests of our Investors and Stakeholders
We are a signatory of United Nations-supported Principles of Responsible Investment (UN PRI) since May 2017, public support of TCFD (Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) and adhere to UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. When making an investment decision, Nexus Point will also refer to the International Finance Corporation (IFC) 2012 Performance Standards on Environmental and Social Sustainability.

Giving Back
We also believe in giving back to our local communities. We support charitable organizations in our local communities annually, giving our team members the opportunity to give back to our society.
