Intro GAMA
GAMA's approach to ESG on three pillars:
- Exclusion: GAMA avoids investing in companies that do not meet fundamental responsibilities or are involved in controversial activities like nonconventional weapons, tobacco, unconventional fossil fuels, adult entertainment, and gambling.
- Integration: GAMA systematically incorporates ESG factors into their investment analysis, focusing on environmental issues (like carbon emissions and water use), social issues (such as human rights and labor practices), and governance factors (including corporate governance and political stability).
- Engagement: GAMA actively engages with companies to promote better environmental and social practices and encourages transparent disclosure of ESG-related information. They collaborate with other investors through memberships in organizations like the Institutional Investor Group on Climate Change and the UN PRI.
Additionally, GAMA benefits from an independent ESG Advisory Board, produces monthly ESG reports, and ensures all investment staff obtain ESG certification. They also embed ESG principles into corporate policies and strive to minimize their carbon footprint.
GAMA adheres to SFDR Article 8.
