4. Sustainable Finance Disclosure Statement

The EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) aims to make the sustainability impact of financial market participants and products more comparable and better understandable for involved parties. Therefore, Dasym is obliged to have a Sustainable Finance Disclosure on its website. The SFDR is one of the many initiatives, which fall under the European Green Deal and EU Sustainable Finance Action Plan. 

Dasym is a regulated boutique investment firm, offering tailor-made investment services. This focus on a tailored approach allows Dasym to service clients’ wishes in sustainability investments, preferences on ESG or Sustainable Development Goals or any feasible mix in asset portfolio. Dasym does not explicitly position itself as a sustainable asset manager, nor has Dasym included the consideration of adverse sustainability impacts in its investment policy. 

Most of our current clients have a similar approach towards sustainability. As our clients have a long-term goal on capital preservation, their first priority is performance within the given risk appetite. Therefore Dasym implements ESG integration in the following way in its investment decision-making process: Dasym incorporates, if possible due to the type of investments, material environmental, social, and governance data and insights into investment making decisions, alongside traditional financial information, with the objective of improving the long-term financial outcomes of funds, portfolios and mandates. 

Dasym may recommend sustainable investment products when these do not have outsized impact on risk adjusted returns. When potential clients have a full sustainability investment philosophy, Dasym welcomes them to engage with us, as Dasym can tailor their needs and ambitions with our independent, tailor-made asset management approach.

Dasym is the advisor for the VanEck Vectors Smart Home ETF. This product promotes environmental and social characteristics in alignment with Article 8 of the EU SFDR.  As described in the prospectus, the Smart Home Fund ETF promotes environmental or social characteristics, but does not have as its objective sustainable investment. There are environmental and social characteristics that apply to the Fund’s investments.
For our investment professionals who are involved with investments that promote environmental and social characteristics, specific targets aimed at responsible investing are incorporated.
