At Innova Capital, we have implemented policies to establish guidelines for the integration and implementation of ESG matters within Innova and across our funds, aligning with the ESG strategy "Beyond Profit" and responsive to the expectations of our investors.
In our commitment to sustainable investing, we firmly believe that ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) is not a trade-off but an integral component in creating enduring long-term value. The ESG perspective accompanies the entire portfolio-building process for each fund. The process is standardized to enhance the likelihood of generating divestment premiums based on sustainability components.
Our responsible investment process is built on methodologies and international guidelines developed by UN PRI, Invest Europe, IFC, and EBRD. It is embedded in procedural standards, guided by the updated 2024 “Innova Capital Responsible Investing Policy” and the “Innova Capital Partners’ Disclosure Statement,” specifically crafted for the new Innova/7 fund.
At fund and portfolio company level we insist on high ethical standards, giving us the practical benefit that it is a value driver for Central European businesses. Our robust but practical policy embodies Innova Capital’s fundamental values, while improving the performance of our companies. ESG procedures are included in all stages of the investment cycle, from the selection of a transaction and its assessment, through building the company’s value after completion of the investment.
