LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE GUIDED BY RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT PRINCIPLES

Treïs operates a multi-asset platform and a direct growth investment platform focusing investments on resource efficient businesses and industries set to benefit from the transition to a more sustainable economic model.

MULTI-ASSET PLATFORM

Our multi-asset platform seeks diversified, risk adjusted returns. Within this portfolio we typically invest in both open and closed-end funds, financial securities, and hard assets.

We have custom built our platform to allow investors the freedom and flexibility to set their own investment priorities, review processes, and preferences around how their capital is allocated; risk profile, portfolio exclusions, sector focus… This is underpinned by our custom risk analysis and reporting systems.

Responsible Investment Methodology

We are committed to continually improving our selection criteria and investment frameworks to ensure that Treïs offers investors best-in-class Responsible Investment practices. Today, the investments made through our multi-asset platform meet a Minimum Required Score measuring their Responsible Investing approach. Each fund investment is scored at least annually at firm level (Responsible Investment commitment and governance), fund level (team structure, fees, incentives, reporting and transparency), and on the manager’s ability to incorporates ESG factors its investment strategy.

 

 

DIRECT GROWTH INVESTMENTS

We provide flexible, long-term equity to growth businesses with well-established market traction and widely adopted technologies. Our collaborative investment approach supports ambitious, high-performing entrepreneurs and teams that are working to effect meaningful, positive change in the world.

Investing exclusively in companies that have a material environmental differentiation, we follow a long-term, value focused strategy that ensures our capital deployment has a material positive impact as well as strong investor returns.

Patient Capital

We believe that patient capital, through the adoption of different investment horizons and incentives to traditional investors, can better align our objectives with those of our portfolio companies and partners. This allows us to generate positive outcomes for society while capturing more efficient and profitable outcomes for businesses, consumers, and investors.

Our Partners

We partner with entrepreneurs leading their industries in the transition to innovative and sustainable economic models, with a focus on resource efficiency. As part of our partnership with portfolio companies, our team provides knowledge, guidance, and resources to help develop them into more sustainable, more successful businesses.

Responsible Investment Methodology

Following the investment principles in line with SFDR Article 9, we invest to accelerate the growth of companies having a positive impact on the environment by strengthening and leveraging strategic competitive advantages, including a sustainability strategy. We adopt the principle of double materiality, taking into account the impact of environment challenges on our portfolio companies’ performance and growth and as well as measuring their impact on natural resources.

We look for companies whose activity will contribute positively to the following objectives:

1. Reducing energy intensity and carbon emissions.
2. Promoting circularity: extending product life, material re-use and  recycling, reducing waste.
3. Preserving water.

…while ensuring no critical issues in fundamental areas such as biodiversity, pollutants, health and safety, and equality.

Philanthropy

We know that some of the world’s most acute problems can’t be solved through entrepreneurial solutions alone. For that reason, we engage in philanthropic and charitable initiatives which are tackling some of society’s most pressing issues, providing funding to select NGO’s and social enterprises. Many of these are committed to helping some of society’s most vulnerable, offering them care, education, and vocational training.

Charities and NGOs we have worked with include The Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation, which conducts vital work in Vietnam, aiding vulnerable children and their families, and Street League, which seeks to address youth unemployment through sports-based initiatives.

We are partnered with Epic, a global foundation focused on empowering and protecting children, youth, and our planet to identify, monitor and evaluate our charity partnerships, ensuring we are supporting causes which best align with our mission and values.

Treïs also runs an ongoing scholarship programme supporting underserved students pursuing university education accessing educational opportunities. The scholarship offers financial support to young adults who may not otherwise have the means to access tertiary level education. The community of Treïs Scholars and Alumni continues to grow and we are proud to offer ongoing support to this network.

We provide access to engineering and climate change qualifications via universities in the UK and Singapore, respectively.
