Investment policy and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) criteria

Article 173 of the French Energy Transition Act asks asset management companies to publish information on how Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria are taken into account in investment and risk management policies.

The investment policies followed by Delubac Asset Management’s directly managed equity and fixed income funds and its indirectly managed (multi-manager) funds do not simultaneously and automatically take account of the three areas – Environmental, Social and Governance – that make up a Socially Responsible Investing (SRI)approach. This is because the external research available on ESG criteria is not sufficient to cover the entire investment universe at Delubac Asset Management, in particular for its global diversified multi-manager funds, which invest across all categories of assets.

Furthermore, as each of the funds managed by Delubac Asset Management has assets under management of less than €500 million, the management company is not required to publish a report for these funds that outlines how ESG information is taken into account.

However, in view of investors’ growing interest in Socially Responsible Investment, Delubac Asset Management periodically appoints an external provider with expertise in this area to analyse its two directly managed funds. All investments in these portfolios are rated in each of the three areas and an overall ESG quality rating is given to the investments made. This rating is communicated directly to investors in the monthly fund reports and the ESG non-financial rating reports are available upon request for investors who have expressed an interest in this measurement of the ESG quality of fund management.

Independently of French regulations on ESG criteria, Delubac Asset Management has been a signatory to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) since December 2021.
