Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR)
QPE make the following disclosures in accordance with the Sustainable Finance Disclosures Regulation (2019/2088) (the ‘SFDR’).
The manner in which Sustainability Risks are integrated into investment decision-making
A sustainability risk means “an environmental, social or governance event or condition that, if it occurs, could cause an actual or potential material negative impact on the value of the investment” (“Sustainability Risk”). In order to ensure that Sustainability Risk considerations form part of the investment process, QPE includes environmental, social, and governance considerations (including Sustainability Risks) in the investment decision making and management processes. Accordingly, QPE considers Sustainability Risks alongside other risk information and financial data to shape decisions throughout the investment process, from pre-acquisition investment analysis through to post acquisition stewardship activities. This approach enables the identification, understanding and management of the impacts of Sustainability Risks, where applicable, on investment value and returns in the short, medium and long term.
The results of the assessment of the likely impacts of Sustainability Risks on the returns of the Fund
Taking account of QPE’s approach to Sustainability Risks as described above, QPE seeks to ensure that Sustainability Risks do not have an overall negative impact on the returns of the Partnership. Whilst QPE believes that its investment management and risk management practices are sufficiently robust to prevent Sustainability Risks from being likely to have a materially negative impact on the returns of the Partnership, there can be no guarantee of this, and no guarantee or representation is made that the Partnership's investment strategies will be successful.
Principal Adverse Impacts on Sustainability Factors
QPE acknowledges that the pursuit of the Partnership's objectives may, in some circumstances, have an impact on certain sustainability factors and, QPE integrates a consideration of Sustainability Risks into its investment analysis. However, having considered the size, nature and scale of its activities, QPE considers that it would not currently be proportionate for it to comply with the detailed technical standards under the SFDR relating to the principal adverse impacts of its investment decisions on sustainability factors. Therefore, QPE does not currently consider the principal adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors.
Remuneration Policy
Regard is given to the integration of Sustainability Risks in remuneration. Where applicable, QPE seeks to tie environmental, social, and governance objectives into individual performance reviews.
