ESG & Sustainability

ESG & Sustainability at BPI

We believe that strong ESG practices are fundamental to creating long-term, sustainable value. Rather than being a standalone initiative, these considerations are integrated throughout every aspect of a business, from governance and decision-making to how organisations engage with their employees, customers, communities, and the wider environment. This philosophy shapes both how we support our portfolio companies and how we operate as a firm.

Since embarking on our ESG journey in 2020, we have continuously evolved and strengthened our approach. Today, ESG is embedded across our investment lifecycle, including due diligence, portfolio monitoring, and day-to-day operations. Just recently, we have further enhanced our framework by introducing structured materiality assessments across our portfolio, enabling us to identify and focus on the ESG topics most relevant to each company’s business model, stage of development, and sector.

This process is driven by the active involvement of our international and diverse investment team across Munich, Berlin, London and Singapore, whose close collaboration with management teams and deep sector expertise help ensure that ESG priorities are assessed through a practical, value-creation lens.
