System

To uphold the highest standards of environmental and social sustainability, CIFI has developed an Environmental and Social Management System (ESMS) that is fully integrated into its investment processes.

This system serves as a framework of policies, detailed procedures, tools, and organizational capacity that is applied to assess, communicate and manage environmental and social risks associated with CIFI’s investments and operations. 

CIFI’s ESMS is built upon its ESG policy commitments and aligns with globally recognized benchmarks, including the Equator Principles and the International Finance Corporation’s 2012 Performance Standards on Environmental and Social Sustainability.

  • CIFI identifies opportunities fitting its investment criteria.
  • CIFI reviews the project's preliminary structure, including ESG risks and opportunities.

Through this comprehensive system, CIFI ensures that every project adheres to sound and robust environmental and social protocols that resonate with its vision for sustainable development across the region. CIFI periodically reviews and updates the ESMS to ensure its components are aligned with industry’s best practices. 

The operationalization and oversight of the ESMS are entrusted to a dedicated ESG team, ensuring seamless and effective implementation across all initiatives through coordinated expertise and continuous engagement.
