Board oversight
The Board of SEQI is ultimately responsible for implementation of this Policy and ensuring that its service providers each provide an attestation, at least on an annual basis, that the policy has been acknowledged and each service provider is providing services in line with the principles set out within the Policy.
This Policy is considered a ‘live document’, with updates as required and approved by the Board on an annual basis. At a minimum, ESG is a standing agenda item at each quarterly board meeting, with the Policy being formally reviewed and approved in its entirety, at least annually.
Remuneration at the level of the Fund Board is fixed and not linked to the performance of the Fund. Equally, the Fund Board have employed service providers such as the AIFM and Investment Adviser, to carry out Portfolio Management on its behalf and in line with the investment strategy set out in its prospectus. On this basis, the Fund Board is therefore not directly involved in the day to day investment considerations/activity and does not benefit financially by the Funds’ performance through the renumeration arrangements.
Global Initiatives
In May 2019, Sequoia signed up to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment. These cover six high‑level principles which Sequoia is fully incorporating in its investment processes and decisions.
Sequoia operates its business and its investment activities in accordance with the UN Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative.
