Responsible Investment

Responsible investment is embedded into the philosophy of Queka Real Partners. We are committed to actively promoting the adoption and development of ESG practices, both internally and in our portfolio companies

ESG Embedded Within Our Processes

Queka’s most recent fund is categorised as an Article 8 fund under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), meaning the team is committed to actively consider and promote ESG factors in investment analysis and decision-making processes.

The company is also a UNPRI signatory, committed to integrating the six UNPRI guiding principles.

In 2023, the team hired an ESG, Audit & Compliance team member, reporting directly into the COO, to focus our efforts further in this regard.

Ongoing ESG Consideration

Queka aims to leave portfolio companies in a better ESG position at the time of divestment compared to at the time of our entry.

We therefore incorporate considerations around ESG as early as the sourcing phase, and continue to dedicate ESG resource to monitor progress all the way through to exit.

SUSTAINABILITY POLICY

Corporate Social Responsibility

We are committed to achieving our own Corporate Social Responsibility goals, promoting ESG initiatives within our team and business.

We have established an alliance with the NGO it-willbe.org, an organisation that uses innovation and technology to find solutions to major social challenges. We also make contributions to various organisations and foundations through our donations program, which is a commitment by Queka to match the contribution amounts made by team members donating individually to various organisations. In the past, this has included charities such as Amigos de Rimkieta, Rainfer-Fundación Chimpatia, Banco de Alimentos, Fundación Entreculturas and UNICEF.
