ESG in Action

E – ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT & CLIMATE CHANGE
Seek operational efficiency measures to reduce the use of natural resources, waste generation, operational costs, and exposure to environmental risks.

We ethically act and respect the environment, encouraging our investees to seek practices that go beyond the legal requirements that regulate the activities of each of our businesses. We encourage the sharing of best practices in our portfolio, highlighting initiatives that focus on energy efficiency; generation and/or acquisition of renewable energy; reuse and consumption reduction of water resources; and reduction and efficient disposal of waste,  as well as the search for innovation and technology investments to address issues related to Climate Change.

To manage our performance and define action plans, our environmental KPIs focus on:
- Environmental management practices
- Energy consumption indicators
- Water consumption indicators
- Solid waste generation and disposal indicators
- GHG emissions (scope 1 and 2)
- Physical climate change impacts

S - DIVERSITY & INCLUSION
Surround ourselves with people with common behavioral values but diverse perspectives, experiences and cultures.

Patria is progressing on the Diversity & Inclusion agenda as we understand this is a relevant topic for our people, our business and our society.
Especially, as we expand our presence across diverse geographies in Latin America and worldwide, we bring different perspectives and backgrounds to our reality. We rely on a diverse, inclusive and safe environment to be ourselves, realizing our full potential as a driving force for the expressive growth we expect to achieve, powering opportunities to everyone.

Gender Equality:
We encourage portfolio companies to find and mentor female talents within the organizations. On average, women occupy 26% of leadership roles. Within Patria, we have 31% of female employees vs. 20% at the Private Equity Industry and 20% of Female employees within leadership roles vs. 12% at Private Equity Industry (Preqin Impact Report: Women In Alternative Assets, March 2021 – Private Equity)

In 2021 Patria, in partnership with ABVCAP, PRI, UNICEF and the Brazilian Global Compact, will participate in a program that aims to reduce the total youth unemployment rate, currently estimated at 40% among the population between 14 to 24 years old (Brazilian Institute for Geographic and Statics - IBGE) by providing training and support to asset managers and investees to hire young employees.

Focus: engagement of Private Equity and Venture Capital managers on the urgency of qualifying and hiring young people in Brazil in vulnerable situations.

Patria’s D&I Initiatives:
- Gender Balance
- PwD
- LGBTQIA+
- Ethnic
- Youth Employment

G - INTEGRITY & ETHICS
Ethics and Integrity are non-negotiable values

Ethics and Integrity are non-negotiable values to our company and the way we do business.
Our discipline in executing processes, guidance and criteria at each step of the investment phase, risk assessment and mitigation plans, replicating best practices in corporate governance in our portfolio companies and defining high compliance standards are key elements for our business success.

Decision making and Implementation
Patria reviews existing compliance with sustainability and ethical business policies in the due diligence process and introduce, whenever necessary, Patria’s standards in the first 100 days of the operation (100-day plan). As matter of fact, Patria will seek to achieve upfront agreement with owner-operators and management to promote full alignment with Patria’s strategic objectives, which include adopting its sustainability and ethical guidelines.

Our Target: All of our Portfolio Companies have a target to implement the Code of Ethics & Anti-corruption Policy, External reporting channels and an Ethics Committee in the 100-day plan. 100% of Portfolio Companies implemented anti-corruption prevention programs:
- Ethics Committee
- Code of Ethics
- Grievance Mechanism

ESG Data Governance at Patria:
We have developed our ESG Strategy and action plans based on tangible metrics to measure contribution to sustainable development. Create a critical mass of meaningful, performance-based ESG data by converging on a standardized set of KPIs
- Accurate and meaningful data management
- Monitor Performance
- Identify Risk & Opportunities to support investment decision: Cost-benefit analysis (benchmark, financial returns)
- Communicate Performance: Transparency
