Uses ESG checks in investing

Darby says it works with the companies it invests in to spot and reduce ESG risks. ESG stands for environmental, social, and governance, which is a way to look at how a business affects nature, people, and decision-making. It says this work is done in line with local laws and with international standards such as the IFC Performance Standards and the ILO Core Conventions, which set basic rules for environmental and labour practices.

Avoids fossil fuel investments

Darby says it applies a climate lens to its investment strategy. It says it avoids investing in fossil fuels and tracks greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across all investments. GHG emissions are gases that trap heat in the atmosphere and drive climate change. The company also says it prefers businesses whose operations help reduce climate impacts.

Measures wider development impact

Darby says it looks for investments that can create wider social and economic benefits, not just financial returns. It says it works with companies on areas such as gender equality, quality work, clean water, sustainable infrastructure, and food security. These themes are linked to the UN SDGs, which are global goals for social and environmental progress.

Uses reporting frameworks

Darby says it uses recognised reporting frameworks to make its ESG goals clearer. It says it is a signatory to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), a global investor network that asks members to consider ESG issues and report on them. It also says it is part of the Investidores pelo Clima initiative in Brazil.
