Financial Supervisory
Nordic Archipelago Investments AB is authorized and regulated by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen).
Consideration of Adverse Sustainability Impacts of Investment Decisions on Sustainability Factors (Article 4 SFDR)
Even though Archipelago Investments has integrated the consideration of Sustainability Risks into the investment decision-making process, we do not currently consider the principal adverse impacts (”PAI”) of our investment decisions on Sustainability Factors.
The reason for opting against doing so is primarily that the regulatory technical standards (“RTS”) supplementing SFDR, which set out the content, methodology and information required in the principal adverse sustainability impact statement (PAI Statement), is very detailed and the individual company specific data indicators required is difficult to access (or estimate) from or for most companies in our investment universe and data from external database suppliers (that approximate some of the indicators required) are still very costly to acquire.
We reserve the right to reconsider this position in the future when more information on individual company specific data indicators required is made more accessible to investors.

Policy för integrering av hållbarhetsrisker
Transparens i fråga om negativa konsekvenser för hållbarhetsfaktorer (artikel 4 SFDR – Disclosure förordningen)
Hållbarhetsrisker beaktas av Bolaget och dess förvaltare och är integrerade i investeringsbeslut som följer av Bolagets policy för integrering av hållbarhetsrisker.
Idagsläget tar Bolaget dock ingen hänsyn till huvudsakliga negativa konsekvenser för hållbarhetsfaktorer (”PAI” – Principle Adverse Impacts on sustainability factors) i enlighet med de tekniska standarderna (”RTS” – Regulatory Technical Standards on ESG Disclosure) under EU:s förordning om hållbarhetsrelaterade upplysningar (SFDR) på 18 obligatoriska PAI indikatorer och 2 frivilliga hållbarhetsindikatorer för varje enskild investering.
Anledningen är att Bolaget än så länge finner data på många av dessa indikatorer i varje enskild investering svårtillgänglig då flertalet aktiebolag som finns i Bolagets investeringsuniversum inte tar fram detta, alternativt att informationen är mycket tidskrävande att estimera eller dyr att köpa från olika externa dataleverantörer (som i förekommande fall uppskattar dess data).
Bolaget förbehåller rätten att ta hänsyn till huvudsakliga negativa konsekvenser (PAI – i enlighet med de tekniska standarderna – RTS) i framtiden när informationen finns mer lättillgänglig för investerare och/eller är väsentligt mindre kostsam att ta fram.
Bolaget beaktar för närvarande inte investeringsbesluts huvudsakliga negativa konsekvenser för hållbarhetsfaktorer i enlighet med kraven i regelverket, detta mot bakgrund av vad som anförts ovan.
