No Sustainable Investment Objective
This financial product promotes environmental or social characteristics, but does not have as its objective sustainable investment.
Environmental or Social Characteristics of the Financial Product
Clementine Capital Fund 1 promotes environmental characteristics by contributing to the transition to a net-zero economy.
The promoted environmental characteristic is, in particular, the potential contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and to long-term decarbonization pathways. The focus lies on enabling technologies and business models that are intended to address key emission drivers in sectors with high greenhouse gas intensity. The Target Fund's investment strategy is focused on Climate Tech companies operating in sectors that currently account for a significant share of global greenhouse gas emissions. These sectors include, among others, electricity, transportation, manufacturing, buildings and agriculture.
No reference benchmark has been designated for the purpose of attaining the environmental and social characteristics promoted by Clementine Capital Fund 1.
Investment Strategy
The purpose of Clementine Capital Fund 1 is to (directly or indirectly) acquire, hold and dispose of an equity investment in the Target Fund, due to its unique positioning to potentially deliver gigaton-scale climate impact in the world's most crucial, hard-to-abate sectors. As part of the overall investment process, a dedicated risk analysis was conducted.
Binding element of the investment strategy is the investment in the Target Fund. Clementine Capital Fund 1 does not directly select individual portfolio companies. Instead, the promoted environmental characteristics are pursued through the Target Fund's stated investment strategy, which defines its primary purpose as making investments principally in companies developing technologies with the potential to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.
Policy to Assess Good Governance Practices of the Investee Companies
As part of its due diligence, the investment team reviews whether the Target Fund has appropriate governance practices in place. This may include an assessment of the Target Fund's performance in areas such as labor practices, human rights, and corporate governance. Clementine Capital Fund 1 also conducts due diligence to evaluate the Target Fund's management structure, employee relations, and tax compliance and, where appropriate, engages with the Target Fund to encourage improvements in governance practices.
Proportion of Investments
Clementine Capital Fund 1 will invest exclusively in the Target Fund. In accordance with the Target Fund's investment strategy, at least 70% of the committed capital is intended to be invested in portfolio companies aligned with the environmental characteristics promoted by Clementine Capital Fund 1.
In addition, Clementine Capital Fund 1 expects to reserve up to 30% of its commitments for liquidity management purposes.
Due to the absence of concrete figures, the values presented herein are based on the Target Fund's stated primary investment purpose as set out in its Limited Partnership Agreement. It is not a legally binding obligation of the Target Fund.
Clementine Capital Fund 1 will not invest a portion of its capital in any other asset class.
