Sustainability

Making responsible investment decisions is core to our strategy.

Our approach

Our commitment to sustainability goes much further than simply producing green energy through our environmental infrastructure investments, but also incorporates proactive management of Environmental, Social and Governance considerations. These considerations are embedded throughout the FGEN investment process and asset management procedures, from initial investment screening through due diligence and into ongoing monitoring and reporting.

FGEN voluntarily reports as an Article 9 fund under the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation, and we have an award-winning approach to ESG.

Our ESG objectives

FGEN's approach to ESG is based on three core principles: Assess, Monitor and Engage. By focusing on each of these principles, FGEN is able to maintain a robust ESG framework. Implementation of the core principles is underpinned by having the right people, policies and processes in place.
