- The European Green Deal sets out that “sustainability should be further embedded into the corporate governance framework”. As a follow-up a large consultation on sustainable corporate governance was launched late last year discussing amongst others, directors duties and sustainable reward.

The world is awakening to the significant environmental and social issues that it faces, and there is growing pressure on governments, businesses and individuals to drive meaningful change.
Companies with an integrated ESG strategy will be at a competitive advantage in attracting investors, consumers and talent. Reward and executive pay can play a part in focusing the attention of the board, driving ESG ambitions and delivering a ‘tone from the top’.

The investment world is entering a new age of maturity on ESG level with a shift from compliance to sustainable value creation. Sofina’s ESG framework and approach embeds some of the best practices on the market with a holistic approach and built by our investment team. We have ESG systematically included in our investment decisions and play a role to bring ESG on the agenda of the board of our portfolio companies.
