Industry Collaboration
At FSN we aim to use our ownership position to drive positive change. We believe that we can further scale our contribution by mobilizing and cooperating with others too. In addition, international ESG frameworks have influenced what we view as material ESG risks and opportunities, including the UN Global Compact to which we are signatories.
PRI development
In 2005, our Senior Advisor and former Chairperson, Knut Kjær, was among those invited by the UN Secretary at that time, Kofi Annan, to draft the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). FSN Capital has been a signatory of the PRI since 2012. FSN Capital Partners’ PRI transparency reports are publicly available on UN PRI’s website. See our Historic PRI scores here.
Adhering to UN PRI’s six principles is a natural part of our investment approach and the foundation for our Responsible Investment Policy. We highly welcome how PRI continues to drive the sustainable investment agenda, the PRI climate module being the latest development.
We have highlighted some of our key efforts to fulfill our commitments under each of PRI’s principles here. We have also identified the SDGs and targets FSN Capital can contribute to.
Among the first six private equity firms to set Science Based Targets
