Argentum’s ESG commitment
Argentum sets high standards for the funds we invest in and integrates ESG considerations into the investment process, requiring that assessments regarding this must be disclosed.
We believe that private equity funds are well positioned to influence ESG efforts in portfolio companies, as governance is central to our industry. Argentum monitors ESG work annually and publishes findings in a dedicated ESG report.
In addition to securing high financial returns, delivering on aspects related to corporate social responsibility and ESG is an integral part of Argentum’s business activities. This applies to investment decisions, our relations with investments partners, and the company’s own operations.
Aligned with UN principles
Argentum has adhered to the principles of the UN Global Compact since joining in 2012 and follows the UN PRI principles for Responsible Investment. In addition to this, Argentum has also prepared and included its own requirements for social responsibility in its investment activities.
Environmental and social responsibility indicators guide both our internal goals and investment objectives. This applies to our internal goals for the organization and objectives relating to our investment activities.
