KeBeK's guiding ESG principles
Environment
We support portfolio companies in implementing high environmental standards. Key areas include energy efficiency, waste management, and the sustainable use of resources, with ESG integrated into core business decisions.
Social
We foster safe and inclusive workplaces and encourage professional development. We value compensation structures that align the long-term interests of owners, management, and employees, while also recognizing the importance of local communities.
Governance
We establish robust governance frameworks in our portfolio companies to ensure transparent operations and compliance with laws and regulations. KeBeK maintains open communication with its investors and emphasizes responsible management practices at all levels.
