SFDR Regulation

The European Union has set itself the goal of financing the transition to a low-carbon economy through three pillars:

1) Redirect capital flows towards a more sustainable economy
2) Integrate sustainability into risk management
3) Promote transparency and long-term sustainability in financial and economic activities.

The EU SFDR 2019/2088 (“Disclosure” regulation) introduced new regulatory obligations for the financial sector to increase the transparency of sustainability of financial market participants and financial products.

The SFDR regulation first requires defining the classification of each financial product according to its characteristics. The classification of funds can be summarised as follows:

Positioning of MIMCO Asset Management's investment solutions:

Funds without a sustainability objective (article 6) Funds promoting environmental and/or social objectives (article 8) Funds with a sustainable investment objective (article 9)
MIMCO Grand-Ducal / /
MIMCO Revitalize / /
/ MIMCO Green Value /

In accordance with Article 3 of the SFDR, MIMCO Asset Management's ESG integration strategy is intended to ensure that MIMCO Asset Management is fully aware of the key risks and opportunities of potential investments by adding additional levels of scrutiny and due diligence to its financial analysis and decision-making process.
