Get to know CapMan’s sustainbility vision, themes and how we organise our sustainability management.
CapMan’s sustainability vision
CapMan’s vision is to become the most responsible Nordic private asset company. To achieve this, we base all our sustainability work in science, and we focus on material topics while working on reducing negative impacts on people and nature throughout our value chain. At the same time, we ensure that the operations we can influence stay within planetary boundaries, positively affect the well-being of people, and continue creating strong financial returns. In practice, we develop roadmaps based on credible frameworks to transition assets and companies toward resource-efficient, circular, and nature-positive operating models. These models promote inclusive and happy workplaces, and the respect for human rights throughout the value chain. We provide practical support to our portfolio companies and the individuals managing our assets, helping them develop their operations. Our commitment to transparency ensures accountability for everything we do. This is how we at CapMan continue to build value for the enrichment of society toward 2040 and beyond. In line with our vision, we do not limit our investments to sustainable assets alone. Instead, we believe that we can create more value by supporting the development of and transition toward sustainable operating models across various industries and sectors.
Our sustainability organisation
Sustainability is integrated throughout the entire CapMan Group. The Head of Sustainability is a member of CapMan’s Management Group and holds overall responsibility for developing and implementing the Group-level sustainability strategy. CapMan’s sustainability team collaborates closely with the investment and asset management teams to implement sustainability measures throughout the investment lifecycle, from initial investment to exit. This process is further supported by functions such as legal & compliance, risk & valuation, and reporting, which provide documentation, risk management, and sustainability target tracking. These functions ensure regulatory compliance throughout the investment lifecycle.
