Investment Strategy : Guiding Principles

Criteria | Guiding Principles | Sectors

As part of the mission of Infinity Energy we have the objective of investing in sustainable energy solutions in Asia whilst maintaining internally and promoting externally best practices for corporate governance and corporate social responsibility.

In order to achieve this goal we have committed ourselves to following a set of voluntary best practice standards covering environmental, social and governance issues. These were established and launched in 2006 as a joint initiative between the UNEP finance initiative and the UN Global Compact. As a signatory we submit to the following:

"As institutional investors, we have a duty to act in the best long-term interests of our beneficiaries. In this fiduciary role, we believe that environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) issues can affect the performance of investment portfolios (to varying degrees across companies, sectors, regions, asset classes and through time). We also recognise that applying these principles may better align investors with broader objectives of society. Therefore, where consistent with our fiduciary responsibilities, we commit to the following the Principles for Responsible Investment as established by the UNEPFI and UN Global Compact. "

The full list of Principles can be read at the following link – http://www.unpri.org/principles/

IE will integrate the principles into our operating processes by the following actions:

  • Assigning dedicated personnel to ensure that all ESG issues are managed correctly with regular reporting directly to the CEO.
  • Integrating ESG issues into the evaluation and due diligence processes for potential investee companies and projects.
  • Through board representation at investee company level, ESG practices and standards will be monitored and improvement notification will be given where necessary.
  • Incorporating ESG issues in annual reports which will be made available via our website.
  • Participation in multi-stakeholder initiatives to discuss and promote ESG issues.
