Implementation of the Equator Principles

  • At LBO France, EnergeaVITA’s Investment manager is the primary person responsible for the enforcement of Equator Principles, notably the reviewing and classification of projects.
  • Operational implementation:
    • The EP Guidance for loan documentation is applied to all transaction debt agreements.
    • Review process: Monitoring and reporting requirements set for each transaction are designed in compliance with national environmental and social laws and regulations. Note that all transactions occur in Designated countries, as all transactions support assets only operating in the EU for the time being, focusing on renewable energy and energy efficiency improvements.
  • Incorporation of the Equator Principles in its credit and risk management policies and procedures:
    • EnergeaVITA’s internal review processes include compliance with Equator Principles.
