BlueCrow perceives the integration of risks related to sustainability (commonly designated ESG risks, about the environmental, social, and governance facets) as of extreme importance to its ongoing activities. The ultimate objective is the creation of long-term value for our investors, participants, and clients, ensuring the competitiveness of the entities invested in and striving to foster a positive impact in the field of ESG.
Stemming from this concern, since 2022, BlueCrow has been a signatory to the PRI. (PRI – Principles for Responsible Investiment) of United Nations.
Given the legislative framework currently in force in the field of sustainability, namely Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 on disclosure requirements in relation to sustainability in the financial services sector (Sustainability Finance Disclosure Regulation ou, abreviadamente, “SFDR”, conforme será designado doravante) e o Regulamento Delegado (UE) 2022/1288 da Comissão, de 6 de abril de 2022 (“Regulamento Delegado”), a BlueCrow vem divulgar a sua ESG Policy. This Policy defines how environmental, social and governance risks are incorporated and integrated into our business.
Irrespective of the integration of ESG risks into decision-making processes, especially as regards investments and investment consultancy, BlueCrow does not take into consideration the negative impacts of its investment decisions on the factors of sustainability. In accordance with the terms stipulated in art. 4, paragraph 1, subparagraph b) of the SFDR Regulation, and subsequent to that foreseen in art. 12 of the Delegated Regulation, BlueCrow explains in an autonomous declaration the reasons for which its does not consider, within the scope of its investment decisions, the negative impacts on the factors of sustainability.
BlueCrow is acutely aware of the importance of sustainability factors, their evolving nature, and their implications for our Group activities. Therefore, we are steadfast in our commitment to periodically review and adapt our position on how these factors are integrated into our management processes.
