On 10 March 2021, the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (Regulation 2019/2088) (‘SFDR’) entered into force. This regulation requires all alternative investment fund managers to publicly disclose on their website:

• their sustainability approaches
• the sustainability profiles of all of their managed funds that are marketed after 10 March 2021

Below you can find these two regulatory disclosures.

CIP’s sustainability approach is described in the section above titled ‘Sustainability and Responsible Investment’ and the overview which can be downloaded above.

For CIP’s formal disclosure statement under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation please download the file below.

CI-IV, CI-ETF I, CI-GCF I, CI-ABF I and CI-V are funds managed by CIP that have been marketed after 10 March 2021.

Under the SFDR, funds can be generally classified in three ways:

• Article 6 funds, which do not have any sustainable or ESG element or strategy
• Article 8 funds, which promote, among other characteristics, environmental or social characteristics (“light green” funds)
• Article 9 funds, which have, as their objective, investments in economic activities that contribute to environmental or social objectives (“dark green” funds)

On the basis that they are financially focused funds with an objective to invest in economic activities that contribute to an environmental objective, CI-IV, CI-ETF I, CI-GCF I, CI-ABF I and CI-V are currently assessed as Article 9 (“dark green”) funds.
