Letter from our team

Dear reader,

In our ESG policy (click here), Committed Capital explains the approach in managing Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) matters. Guided by The Six Principles for Responsible Investment and The Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, we incorporate ESG matters into our investment process, actively manage and disclose ESG matters within our portfolio, promotes, collaborates and reports on ESG matters to create more substance within the private equity investment industry.

Committed Capital believes in good entrepreneurship

As the PE investment industry touches many geographical regions, industries, companies as well as communities, we believe the investment industry as a whole and Committed Capital as an investment fund manager, can positively contribute to a better environment and society through the investments activities.

Committed Capital strives to positively impact its stakeholders by investing in companies that create long-term value through good entrepreneurship. We believe truly that good entrepreneurship mitigates all risks and seize all opportunities, including ESG related matters. Therefore, Committed Capital engrains ESG policy into the way a company manages its business. By formalizing the way Committed Capital approaches ESG, we steer our investment teams and help portfolio companies to achieve long-term growth and value creation for all stakeholders, while raising awareness and creating transparency regarding ESG matters.

On behalf of the Committed Capital,

ESG team

SFDR statements

Principal adverse impacts on sustainability factors

Due to the size and fact that Committed Capital employs less than 500 employees on average, we are not obliged to provide SFDR disclosure. However, we still take things seriously to minimize any potential adverse impact of our investment decisions on sustainability in accordance with Article 4(1b) of Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 (SFDR).
