Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) compliance is firmly embedded in our investment process at C4D. As impact investment fund managers, it is crucial for us to ensure that our investments prevent irrevocable environmental effects and consider the social well-being of all stakeholders.
We screen our investment pipeline based on ESG metrics and allot 100% of our funds only to ESG-compliant businesses, assessing each business based on internationally accepted ESG standards and national and local ESG regulations. Our portfolio comprises companies that are not only complying with these standards but also actively solving environmental and social challenges.
With the aim to offer practical guidance on ESG compliance to portfolio companies, we developed the C4D Partners ESG Toolkit. The C4D Partners ESG Toolkit follows the internationally accepted IFC performance standards and methodologies for assessing and screening companies on ESG standards.
The toolkit has been designed meticulously to aid the process of screening potential investees based on their compliance with ESG standards. Post investment, it also enables our team to suggest actionable plans to optimize ESG metrics and monitor the progress of the implementation of the action items annually.
