As investors, we are active board members for our portfolio companies, and recognise the need for good governance, and our role in that process. We often lead our investments, and are active board members in the majority of our portfolio companies.
Portfolio Case Study: SESAMm
We invested in many of our portfolio companies at a very early stage, supporting them as they scale rapidly. Governance mechanisms become more important as companies grow, and one of our standout portfolio companies in this area is SESAMm.
In the early days of growth, SESAMm has already developed numerous resources on best practices. They have implemented a comprehensive ESG taxonomy, enhancing granularity across environmental, social, and governance risk categories, and enabling more precise risk assessments. SESAMm’s commitment to robust governance is also reflected in their internal practices, including the appointment of an independent board member to bring diverse perspectives to strategic decision-making. By embedding strong governance principles early on, SESAMm sets a benchmark for responsible growth in the fintech sector.
