With Inyova Invest, your impact comes from directly engaging companies and the broader ecosystem they act in. Only through this engagement, you can have a positive real-world impact with publicly owned company stocks.
That’s why we actively work with businesses, lawmakers, and industry experts to drive real, positive change. Here’s a look at three recent ways we made an impact.
Pushing for safer workplaces
Mips has been a great investment case for your portfolio, being up 38% since we added it. However, its technology has also made sports much safer, especially cycling, a low-carbon means of transportation. Now, we want to bring those same high standards to the industrial sector. Every day, construction workers face risks that modern helmet technology could help prevent.
Recently, our impact and investment teams sat down with leadership at the International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA). The ISEA sets the rules for how safety gear is tested and regulated. We advocated for a better inclusion of rotational impacts in safety tests – exactly what MIPS is good at. ISEA confirmed the importance of this and that they will prioritise testing improvements in the upcoming regulatory period.
This way we were not only calling for safer workplaces; we were also promoting new growth opportunities for your portfolio company MIPS.
Defending Europe’s clean energy future
The EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is a highly successful tool for reducing carbon emissions. In fact, it has helped cut emissions in covered sectors by about 50% since 2005. The system works by putting a price on carbon emissions, which encourages companies to reduce their footprint.
Recently, we joined 44 other global investors to sign an open letter to European leaders. Together, this group represents €11.4 trillion in assets. We urged the EU to maintain a robust and predictable EU ETS. A strong, stable climate policy gives companies the financial confidence they need to plan ahead and invest in clean technologies. This stability is the true foundation for Europe’s clean industrial future and energy security.
Helping BASF align with a greener future
We strongly believe in the power of constructive dialogue. The chemical company BASF has made great public commitments to climate goals. However, we noticed their industry lobbying regarding the EU ETS did not fully match these green ambitions.
Ahead of their Annual General Meeting, we teamed up with other investors to open a constructive conversation. Our goal is to encourage BASF to align its lobbying efforts with its climate promises. By working together, we can help ensure they lead the way in sustainable industry practices in the chemical industry.
Note: You are not invested in BASF. We still think it is important to back this initiative for a broader ecosystem change.
