Our goals

Primary objective of the private equity fund, managed by Advance Capital Partners, is to create long term value for shareholders and investors and the only way to achieve this is to build sustainable businesses. As a majority owner of several companies, that are leaders in their niches, the fund has a responsibility and all the necessary means to contribute to improvement of sustainable operations. In turn, this also leads to improved operational and financial performance of our investees and reduces risks for continuity of the businesses.

ESG

Investments of the funds do not take into account EU criteria for inviromentally sustainable economic activities. The funds have not adopted a specific policy regarding sustainable operations. Nevertheless, the investment decisions relating to the funds will generally follow general EU criteria for sustainable economic activities but will not promote or pursue any specific sustainability (ESG) Objectives. 

We will strive to achieve high ESG standards both in the funds and in its portfolio companies. Advance Capital Partners will start to gradually integrate ESG standards in all areas of our operations.

Corporate governance will lie at the heart of our ESG efforts. We have vast experience in designing effective governance structures. Engagement with management teams and other stakeholders allows us to establish governance mechanisms that promote transparency, accountability and ethical behavior across our companies. On a path of building sustainable business, our goal is to align the interest od shareholders, management and employees.

We are directing portfolio companies of the fund towards adoption of climate friendly policies. Low carbon economy / renewables are among the key investment themes in our portfolio. We see ourselves as part of the solution in the ongoing quest to decrease the impact of businesses on the environment.

Advance Capital Partners aims to be the promoter of diversity and inclusion. We strongly believe that the best corporate culture is the one of fairness and equal opportunity.
