Corporate Governance

We are strongly committed to our duty of care towards our investors, ensuring independent decision making at fund level whilst benefiting from synergies with FMO of which we are a wholly owned subsidiary.

To ensure FMO Investment Management can exercise its duty of care towards investors our policies & procedures are designed to be effective and create transparency. In many instances these are aligned with or based on those of FMO NV as we share the same values and business principles. FMO has for example a high quality investment policy taking environmental, social and corporate governance impact into full consideration before making any investment decision. As the funds we advise upon always invest alongside FMO, all fund investments meet FMO’s standards.

    MifID is the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2004/39/EC). This directive governs the provision of investment services in financial instruments by banks and investment firms and the operation of traditional stock exchanges and alternative trading venues. Its aim is to harmonize legislation across European countries, increase competition and protect consumers of investment services. MiFID has for example requirements relating to the information that needs to be captured when accepting client orders, ensuring that a firm is acting in a client's best interests and as to how orders from different clients may be aggregated.
