Sustainability principles
Responsible investments
Ametalis is a Nordic group of companies that offer various consultative expert services, clearly contributing to a more sustainable business environment and, consequently, the future. Long-term sustainability is at the core of all investments made by the group. We believe that a responsible and proactive approach to sustainability positively impacts society at large. We expect the entire Ametalis group to be dedicated to this sustainability effort.
Our ESG principles
Our ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) principles have been formalized into six principles that we strive to achieve and uphold. We continuously develop our principles as the Ametalis group grows.
Principle 1
ESG criteria are incorporated into the analysis and decision-making processes for all investments, including:
- Consideration of non-financial performance of target companies (governance, social, and environmental impact)
- Assessment of whether an investment aligns with our ethical guidelines
Principle 2
Fostering and spreading of the UN Principles for Responsible Investment and compliance with these principles by:
- Ensuring that all group companies communicate and implement ESG principles within their operations
- Supporting senior executives in sustainable business development
Principle 3
Informing our other stakeholders about the group’s ESG policy and regularly providing them with information about our approach in these matters through:
- Relevant information in our annual report
- Providing transparent and objective information
- Information traceability
Principle 4
Adopting a responsible and ethical approach to corporate governance, including:
- Compensation for senior executives and bonus policies in line with international standards
- Implementation of compliance policies and procedures for ongoing monitoring of the group's systems and internal controls
- Strong consideration of our ethical obligations in conducting business (anti-money laundering and anti-corruption)
Principle 5
Reducing the environmental impact of our operations through:
- Reduced energy and water consumption
- Encouraging reduced paper usage
- Waste recycling
- Preferential use of reusable items
- Limiting business travel where practical
- Developing a responsible procurement policy that encourages our suppliers to adhere to sustainable development criteria
Principle 6
Working with an employee handbook that values and respects all employees, including:
