TCFD Annual Disclosures Reports

Climate change represents perhaps the most defining challenge of our times. More than ever, we need to invest responsibly. As a Firm, we have a longstanding commitment to responsible investment and are dedicated to maintaining the utmost transparency with our investors and business partners when it comes to these topics.

Our strong expertise in Clean Energy investments positions Capital Dynamics to play a leadership role in the global energy transition. All of our business lines integrate responsible investment (“RI”) and material environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) factors in the investment process. They are woven into our corporate DNA.

We support and embrace the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) and are committed to producing annual disclosures in order to contribute to the development of a more transparent financial market. We remain resolute in our commitment to taking purposeful action on climate change today for a better tomorrow.

Clean Energy Sustainability Report

Capital Dynamics Limited publishes the annual Clean Energy Sustainability Report in order to:
- Provide transparency on the sustainability performance of our Clean Energy investments;
- Report on the progress we have made towards our Responsible Investment (“RI") commitments; and
- Provide insights into our RI processes.

Embracing ESG As A Value Driver

Integrating Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors into private equity’s investment process can lead to better returns for investors. As an early signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), Capital Dynamics truly believes in the value proposition of integrating ESG principles both into day-to-day activity as well as into investment processes. We are the first global private equity fund platform to launch a Clean Energy strategy. In the traditional private equity investing world, Capital Dynamics (as a Limited Partner) integrated ESG principles into its fund selection process and monitored ESG implementation among its General Partners (GPs).
