01.2. Describe your reasons for choosing a particular ESG incorporation strategy and how combinations of strategies are used.

We deal in private debt to real estate owners, so we do not have a listed universe where we can apply screening. We do however screen incoming deal flow based on our ESG criteria to filter out investments that are unlikely to fit with our ambitions and/or seem to imply unwanted credit risk. We integrate ESG analysis and monitoring in our credit analysis and score each investment on our ESG criteria. Our investment universe is very heterogenous so it is difficult to draw direct comparisons between individual investments

FI 02. ESG issues and issuer research (Private)

FI 03. Processes to ensure analysis is robust

03.1. Indicate how you ensure that your ESG research process is robust:

Comprehensive ESG research is undertaken internally to determine companies’ activities; and products and/or services

Issuers are given the opportunity by you or your research provider to review ESG research on them and correct inaccuracies

Issuer information and/or ESG ratings are updated regularly to ensure ESG research is accurate

Internal audits and regular reviews of ESG research are undertaken in a systematic way.

A materiality/sustainability framework is created and regularly updated that includes all the key ESG risks and opportunities for each sector/country.

ESG information is held within a centralised database and is accessible to all investment staff

Other, specify

None of the above

03.3. Additional information. [Optional]
