Governance
Clear decisions, independent oversight
Investors trust us with their capital and founders with their companies. Our governance is designed so both can see how decisions are taken.
Independent oversight
A Supervisory Board and an independent member on the Investment Committee look over our decisions.
A clear decision process
Each investment goes through defined stages, and every decision is recorded.
Conflicts handled openly
Related-party matters are disclosed and decided by those without a conflict.
Responsible investment
ESG as a source of value
Industrial companies that use energy well, keep their people safe and are well governed are more competitive and easier to finance. We build ESG into each company's plan from the first day.
Environment
Energy efficiency and a credible path to lower emissions.
People & safety
Safe workplaces, training and fair conditions.
Good governance
Strong boards, internal control, ethics and compliance.
