Responsible investing

A holistic approach to sustainable investing

Azvalor dedicates a lot of time and effort to find, understand and analyze listed companies, trying to invest in good businesses, managed by honest managers whose interests are aligned with shareholders.

A complete analysis of a company entails the identification and analysis of all the potential risks that may negatively affect its future value.

Within this framework are included, among many others, those sustainability risks related to its corporate governance, social and environmental practices. The holistic integration of the analysis of all types of risks is inherent to the philosophy that Azvalor’s investment team has been practicing for more than two decades.

Besides, since the publishing of the new regulatory framework related to ESG (Regulation 2019/2088, in force since March 10, 2021), we also incorporate some control tools, so that risks are monitored in a more visible and explicit way, with the help of complementary risk analysis platforms.

Adverse impacts: Although Azvalor has a sustainability risk integration policy, it does not take into consideration in the management of its funds the adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors, as it does not currently have due diligence policies in relation to such adverse impacts.
