Sustainability Policy.

January 2024

This represents the Sustainability Policy (the “Policy”) for Abri Advisors Ltd. and its affiliates (together “Abri”).  The main goal of Abri’s Policy is to ensure responsible personal and corporate behaviour relating to climate change and social inequities, and to the greatest extent possible, reduce the negative human impact on the planet resulting from irresponsible consumption.  Abri has adopted a holistic and dedicated approach to environmental sustainability & social responsibility, both at a personal and corporate level, as well as ensuring that our target investment companies also adopt and adhere to international standards. Abri Sustainability Policy focuses on 4 main areas:

  • Reduce
  • Reuse
  • Recycle
  • Social Responsibility.

Reduce

We endeavour to reduce our consumption and utilisation footprint as it relates to the following items:

Energy
heating, cooling, electricity, transportation, fossil fuels

Food Items
palm oil, meats, dairy, sugar, heavy pesticide crops

Plastics
single-use plastic, heavily packaged items

Waste
use/take only what is needed and use what is taken

Recycle

We recycle as many items and as much waste as possible.  In general, we focus on the following items:

  • Plastic, glass, aluminium, paper
  • Compost all food waste
  • Contribute old and unwanted items to organisations for repurpose
  • Electronic components, batteries, metals to recycling centres

Social Responsibility

We believe in a fair, open and transparent hiring process that is skill-based, and a pay and promotion process that is merit-based, mutatis mutandis.  Further, we seek to offer internships to under-privileged or troubled young people from deprived communities and households. Abri seeks to donate at least 1% of yearly profit to charity, primarily those focused on eco-conservation and developing-country children’s education.
