OUR VISION

At Invesmar, we are guided by clear principles of responsible investment to develop projects that deliver triple impact. This is a rigorous process, where every prospect must meet a series of filters before moving forward:

Exclusions



Avoid investments that have a significantly negative impact on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Active Ownership



Given Invesmar’s ownership model, the Business Committee actively participates in the ongoing evaluation of ESG criteria.

ESG Analysis and Alignment



Incorporate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria, aligned with sustainability goals for 2030–2060. These include: protection and care of biodiversity; carbon neutrality; responsible water management; maximizing benefits through a circular economy; community transformation; and intergenerational engagement, among others.

Adopt metrics and disclose international sustainability standards.

OUR SUSTAINABLE PURPOSE

We also operate under a sustainability model that reflects the shared purpose of our entire organization and the principles that guide our day-to-day operations.

We believe the private sector plays a key role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

We are committed to generating triple impact (social, environmental, and economic) by assessing risks with rigor and proactivity, designing action plans, and measuring our impacts through the lens of sustainable investment principles.

Sustainable businesses are the only ones with the ability to endure over time, create shared value, and serve markets that are increasingly aware of industry impacts.

In 2024, we updated our materiality assessment to further align our business strategies with core sustainability principles. To do so, we held consultations with business leaders and both internal and external experts, supported by an in-depth review of global and local sustainability trends:

These efforts reflect our unique business vision—one that places sustainable development at the heart of every decision we make.
