Odpovědné investování – ESG

Společnost ESPIRA Investments se zavazuje integrovat environmentální a sociální správu (ESG) do všech svých investičních aktivit. Níže uvádíme naše základní principy v této oblasti.

1. Identify ESG issues throughout our due diligence process related to potential investments and refuse to invest in any business that wilfully exploits underserved or underprivileged communities and/or creates significant damage to society. This includes weapons, ammunition, tobacco, payday lending, or gambling.

2. Cooperate with portfolio companies on environmental, health, safety, and social issues to improve performance and minimize adverse impacts. To grow and develop portfolio companies while benefiting multiple stakeholders.

3. Make ESG integration within the fund an ongoing endeavour, ably supported by the ESG Committee’s regular review and reporting strategy.

4. Adhere to the highest standards of conduct to avoid negligent, unfair, or improper practices. This includes –

▪ proaktivní dodržování platných národních, státních a místních pracovních zákonů v zemích, ve kterých investujeme
▪ podpora vyplácení konkurenceschopných mezd a výhod zaměstnancům
▪ zajištění bezpečného a zdravého pracoviště v souladu s národními a místními zákony.

5. Respect the human rights of those affected by our investment activities and seek to confirm that our investments do not support companies that utilise child, forced labour, or maintain discriminatory policies.

6. Ensure all ESPIRA employees are aware of the firm’s culture of social responsibility and encourage them to strengthen that culture. Encourage all firm professionals to engage in non-profit and socially responsible volunteer activities.

7. Encourage dialogue with investors and stakeholders regarding the consistent management of ESG factors inline their initiatives. Work with investors to foster transparency in all aspects of the firm’s activities, including ESG performance.

8. Distribute this policy and related ESG information to all appropriate employees of our portfolio companies.
