Impact, Climate & Governance

ESG as underwriting, not reporting

Climate adaptation, gender and environmental and social standards are applied as investment criteria at committee stage — and they reinforce the commercial case rather than sitting beside it.

Climate adaptation

  • Moldova carries the highest cumulative disaster cost in Europe, roughly 12% of 2019 GDP against a 3% regional average.
  • Adaptation cost is about 2% of GDP per year; the cost of inaction is around $600M per year and doubling by 2050 (IMF).
  • Ukraine has sustained $56B of energy-infrastructure damage (KSE, 2026).
  • On-site renewables, cold chain and agrifood upgrades deliver avoided emissions and grid resilience.

2X gender challenge

  • Led by two senior women Managing Partners — 2X alignment at both the management and investment-committee level.
  • Gender is assessed at investment-committee stage, not retrofitted after investment.
  • Primary pathways: 30%+ women in the workforce and women in the supply chain.
  • 51.4% of entrepreneurs in Ukraine's Odesa oblast are women (KSE, 2024).

Binding standards

  • IFC Performance Standards 1–8: binding, not aspirational.
  • EBRD Environmental and Social Policy: binding.
  • SFDR Article 8 classification as a binding standard.
  • An environmental and social management system is established before the first investment.
  • Annual ESG reporting to the advisory committee plus a public impact report.
