We invest in listed public companies with products and technologies, that create a measurable social and environmental impact.
We don't consider buying/selling stock as making an impact. Using the dialog with our portfolio companies, we engage to measure, map and create impact. We use a blended approach to investing, which differentiates itself through financial as well as socio-ecological performance and by combining these two qualities and revealing the positive effects they may have achieved (impact from ESG & SDG mapping).
ESG and impact are fully integrated into our flagship equity funds Carnot Efficient Energy and Carnot Efficient Resources.
We are convinced that rising energy costs, insecurity of supply, scarcity of resources and climate change will create a shift towards sustainability and create structural growth opportunities. We see this shift as a long-term investment opportunity and concentrate our efforts on finding, selecting and creating companies that will thrive in this environment.
Risk is mitigated through rigorous in-house research and a frequent dialogue with portfolio companies. Furthermore, our value approach ensures that we invest into companies that have proven business models, a solid balance sheet, a stable cash flow and high-quality management teams.
