Legal Disclosure

Strategies of the company for the inclusion of sustainability risks

Due to legal requirements (Art. 3 Disclosure Regulation), we are obliged to provide the following information. We do not intend to advertise ecological or social features in our investment strategies or for other specific financial instruments:

  • As a company, we want to contribute to a sustainable, resource-efficient economy with the aim of identifying the risks and impacts of climate change in particular. In addition to observing sustainability goals in our organization itself, we also see it as our task to sensitize our clients to aspects of sustainability when structuring the business relationship and to point out the expected impact on investment results by including ESG criteria in investment decisions.
  • Environmental risks, social upheavals or poor corporate governance can have a negative impact on the value of our clients' investments and assets in several ways. These so-called sustainability risks can have a direct impact on the net assets, financial position and results of operations, and also on the reputation of the investment properties. As such risks cannot be completely ruled out, we have developed specific strategies for the financial services we offer to identify sustainability risks.
  • To check sustainability risks, we use sustainability rankings recognized by the market, such as those published by MSCI, S&P, Sustainalytics or Bloomberg. In this way, we try to identify companies that exhibit increased sustainability risks and carefully consider possible sustainability risks before making investment decisions. The specific details result from individual customer agreements.
  • Our company's strategies for incorporating sustainability risks are also incorporated in the company's internal organizational guidelines. Observance of these guidelines is decisive for the evaluation of our employees' work performance and thus influences future salary development. In this respect, the compensation policy is in line with our strategies for incorporating sustainability risks (Art. 5 Disclosure Regulation).
  • In all investment decisions and the consideration of sustainability risks made for this purpose, we are always bound by the contractual requirements agreed with our clients (in the case of undertakings for collective investment in securities, in particular the sales prospectus) and other binding legal requirements.

Declaration on the non-consideration of adverse effects on sustainability factors

Due to legal requirements (Art. 4 Disclosure Regulation) we are obliged to provide the following information:

  • Investment decisions may have adverse effects on the environment (e.g. climate, water, biodiversity), on social and employee concerns, and may also be detrimental to the fight against corruption and bribery.
  • We have a considerable interest in fulfilling our responsibility as a financial services provider and in helping to avoid such effects in the context of our investment decisions. However, the implementation of the legal requirements specified for this purpose is difficult according to the current situation due to the existing and still expected bureaucratic framework conditions. In addition, major legal issues are still unresolved.
  • To avoid legal disadvantages, we are therefore currently prevented from making a public declaration to the effect that and in what way we consider the adverse effects on sustainability factors in our investment decisions. Therefore, we have decided to declare that we will not consider them for the time being and until further clarification is provided.
  • However, we expressly state that this handling does not change our willingness to contribute to a sustainable, resource-efficient economy with the aim of reducing the risks and impacts of climate change and other environmental or social issues.

Disclosure pursuant to Section 16 of the Remuneration Ordinance for Institutions

The Company's compensation systems are designed in such a way that, as a matter of principle, false incentives are avoided and no incentives are given to take high risks. Fixed and, where applicable, variable compensation is paid, with the fixed compensation being set in such a way that no economic dependency on the variable compensation components or excessive incentive can arise for the employee. Depending on the financial situation of the Company, the variable compensation may be reduced to zero. In application of the materiality, protection and confidentiality principles of Section 26a (2) of the German Banking Act (KWG), detailed disclosure of the total amount of fixed and variable remuneration and the number of employees receiving variable remuneration is not provided, as this information would allow conclusions to be drawn about the confidential remuneration of individual employees due to the size and structure of the Company. Further required disclosures are published annually in the Federal Gazette.

Statutory Disclosure on the Implementation of the Second Shareholder Rights Directive (ARUG II, zweite Aktionärsrechterichtlinie, Second Shareholder Rights Directive)

Spinoza Capital GmbH falls under the definition of an asset manager within the meaning of § 134a para. 1 no. 2 AktG (Aktiengesetz, Stock Corporation Act) and must therefore describe its participation policy within the meaning of § 134b AktG.

  • The company does not exercise any shareholder rights within the meaning of § 134b para. 1 no. 1 AktG that are based on participation in the company. In particular, no rights related to general meetings of public limited companies are exercised. The right to a share in profits within the meaning of §§ 60ff. AktG as well as to subscription rights are exercised or monetized on behalf of the clients.
  • The monitoring of important matters of the companies within the meaning of § 134b para. 1 no. 2 AktG is carried out by taking note of the legally required reporting of the companies in financial reports as well as ad hoc announcements.
  • There is no exchange of opinions with the corporate bodies and stakeholders of the company within the meaning of § 134b para. 1 no. 3 AktG.
  • There is no cooperation with other shareholders within the meaning of § 134b para. 1 no. 4 AktG.
  • In the event of conflicts of interest within the meaning of § 134b para. 1 no. 5 AktG, disclosure is made to the parties concerned in accordance with the statutory provisions and further proceedings are clarified with them.
  • An annual publication on the implementation of the participation policy within the meaning of § 134b para. 2 AktG is not made because the corresponding rights are not exercised.
  • There is no publication of voting behaviour within the meaning of § 134b para. 3 AktG because there is no participation in voting.
