Reporting

As part of the implementation of our integrated DPIMS, measurement of value-add and impact is integrated into the broader impact and ESG measurement and data management process.

Our approach is aligned to Principles 2 and 6 of the Operating Principles for Impact Management. In addition to the PRI and 2X Challenge reporting, DPI integrates Impact and ESG data in its quarterly reports to its investors for all three funds and prepares a standalone yearly ESG report for each fund (Impact and ESG report for ADP III).

Commitment to our investors

Our DPIMS defines and supports assessment, monitoring and reporting to investors as reflected in our commitment to investors to:

  1. Provide transparent and concise data on each portfolio company’s sustainability performance, identified risks and mitigation strategies.
  2. Report annually to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment to communicate DPI’s ESG performance as a firm.
  3. Communicate DPI’s compliance with the need for public disclosure and independent verification according to requirements of Principle 9 of the Operating Principles for Impact Management.

No consideration of sustainability adverse impacts

Development Partners International LLP (DPI) publishes information on whether it considers the “adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors” under the SFDR. As defined under and in accordance with the SFDR, DPI does not currently consider the adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors in connection with all its products and services, solely because the final regulatory technical standards which set out the scope of “principal adverse impacts” and the corresponding mandatory reporting template have not yet been adopted by European legislators. DPI will review its position following publication of the final regulatory technical standards and will model the information required under the SFDR against the extensive information that it currently collects on “principal adverse impacts” and consider the practicality of providing to investors the information required under the SFDR.
