Commitments and actions in line with our convictions

Momentum Invest systematically considers sustainable development and environmental issues, as well as sustainability issues in general, at every stage of the investment process, from the pre-acquisition audit phase through to the sale and monitoring of holdings, a key period for implementing the sustainable transformation plan.
Since our creation in 2017, we have been helping our portfolio companies to implement and monitor an ambitious sustainable development policy. This approach includes consideration of environmental and social impacts.
We are committed to a voluntary, sincere, and ongoing approach to creating both financial and non-financial value for all the companies in our portfolio, as well as for our management company.

• PRI (Principles for Responsible Investment) since its creation in 2018, which guarantees an investment strategy that takes sustainability into account.
• the International Climate Initiative since 2019, which recognises that climate change will have an impact on the global economy, presenting investment risks and opportunities.
• the France Invest Gender Parity Charter since 2020, which promotes gender parity in signatory management companies and holdings.
