Risk Management

Our risk management approach is based on the concept of double materiality, encompassing the financial, environmental and social risks for both the projects, as well as those arising from their implementation. Tools like the Environmental and Social Risk Management System (ESRMS) enable us to assess environmental and social risks as part of our due-diligence process, ensuring the sustainability of every initiative.

We carefully select each project based on its potential to generate significant environmental benefits or improve access to basic services for the people living in the border region. Our robust project evaluation and selection process ensures compliance with strict environmental and social governance standards, reaffirming our commitment to transparency and accountability. To validate the soundness of our approach, S&P Global Ratings issued a second-party opinion of the framework. This assessment confirms the alignment of our practices with institutional sustainability objectives and recognized international principles and guidelines for green, social and sustainability financing.
