Impilo joins the ESG Data Convergence Initiative reaffirms commitment to ESG disclosure and standardization

Impilo AB, today announced that it has joined the ESG Data Convergence Initiative, a global effort to improve ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) data standardization and disclosure.

The ESG Data Convergence Initiative (EDCI) is an open partnership of private equity industry stakeholders committed to streamlining the industry’s approach to collecting and reporting on ESG. It brings together more than 275 General & Limited Partners with some $26tn asset under management, and more than 2000 portfolio companies. By joining this initiative, Impilo underscores its commitment to transparency, accountability, and sustainability, and its belief that standardized ESG data is crucial for informed decision-making.

Impilo’s Managing Partner, Fredrik Strömholm comments:

“Joining the ESG Data Convergence Initiative is an important step on our sustainability journey. We believe that managing ESG factors is essential to long-term business success and that it will contribute to a more sustainable healthcare system. The disclosure of our performance is critical, and we are committed to providing investors with accurate, reliable, and comparable ESG data. By working with other leading companies and stakeholders in this initiative, we can help shape the future of ESG data reporting and improve the quality and accessibility of ESG information.”

As part of its commitment to ESG disclosure and standardization, Impilo has already taken a number of steps to enhance its ESG reporting, including requiring portfolio companies to disclose performance against the EDCI indicators as well as a number of other ESG indicators, reporting regularly to investors on portfolio companies’ performance on the Impilo Sustainability Blueprint, and by publishing an annual sustainability report. In addition, Impilo works with its portfolio companies to demonstrate how they contribute to creating health impact.
