The opportunities of sustainable investments
- Positive impact on the environment and society: Sustainable investments contribute to advancing and providing solutions for social and environmental challenges.
- Long-term competitiveness: Companies that promote innovation and prioritize sustainable investments are better prepared for future challenges and can tap into new market segments.
- Expanded market opportunities: Companies that are committed to sustainability gain customers who value environmental responsibility and thus create competitive advantages.
- Resilience to risks: Sustainable companies are often more resilient to risks such as regulatory changes or loss of reputation.
Possible challenges
- Evaluation of sustainable initiatives: Assessing sustainability is often complex, which is why Abacus alpha works closely with the management of its portfolio companies to determine and successfully implement the strategic framework for these initiatives.
- Costs and investments: The transition to sustainable practices often requires significant investment in new technologies and infrastructure.
