Remuneration Policy 

The company's remuneration rules are designed in accordance with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's regulations and general guidelines (FFFS 2013:10). The remuneration rules are designed to encourage good performance and attract new employees, while at the same time being consistent with the company's business strategy and long-term interests. The remuneration rules shall counteract excessive risk-taking, conflicts of interest and promote sound and effective risk management. At present, all of the company's employees are deemed to be included in the category of specially regulated personnel.


Article 5 of SFDR requires financial market participants to include in their remuneration policies information on how those policies are consistent with the integration of sustainability risks and to publish this information on their websites. The Company has integrated sustainability risks into its assessments and believes that it is consistent with the integration of sustainability risks in the business. In short, both fixed and variable salary components are determined taking into account common, long-term goals within the Company, including the Company's performance and risks. Proxy’s results are based on risk-adjusted profit measures in a multi-year perspective and the employee's individual performance. When considering the employee's performance, both financial and non-financial criteria shall be taken into account and both qualitative and quantitative measures shall be considered. The qualitative targets include Proxy’s overall sustainability targets. When determining variable components, their impact on current and future risks in Proxy shall be taken into account, including sustainability risks.

Sustainability policy and disclosures

The Fund has sustainable investment as its objective and thus, is categorised as a “Sustainable Objective” approach sub-fund, falling into the scope of article 9 of the SFDR. We refer to the following page for more detailed information: Sustainability - Proxy P Management AB.

Information on sustainability criteria for the Fund can also be found in the fund prospectus; for more information: ProxyP_SICAV_prospectus. Information on sustainability risk can be found below.

Sustainability risk

Sustainability risk refers to “an environmental, social or governance event or condition that, if it occurs, could cause an actual or a potential material negative impact on the value of the investment”, in accordance with article 2 (22) of the SFDR. Unmanaged or unmitigated sustainability risks can impact the returns of financial products. For instance, should an environmental,social or governance event or condition occur, it could cause an actual or a potential material negative impact on the value of an investment.


Proxy considers sustainability risk as risks that are likely to materially negatively impact the financial condition or performance of a company or an issuer, and therefore the value of that investment. The scope of the analyzed sustainability risks is environmental, social and employee matters, respect for human rights, anti‐corruption and anti‐bribery matters. Proxy integrates the sustainability risks in the Funds’ investment process: (i) in the due diligence when making an investment decision and (ii) assessing the sustainability risks on a continuous basis through the Fund’s risk monitoring process, in conjunction with all investments, by identifying what sustainability risks are relevant for each investment and how they might have a negative impact on the financial return of such investments. Sustainability risks are integrated into the decision making and risk monitoring processes to the extent that they represent a potential or actual material risk and/or opportunities to maximize the long term returns. The result of Proxy’s assessment of the likely impacts of sustainability risks on the returns of the Sub-Fund is further described in the prospectus ProxyP_SICAV_prospectus and here: .

Policy for shareholder engagement 

An AIFM shall develop adequate and effective strategies for determining when and how any voting rights held in the AIF portfolios it manages are to be exercised, to the exclusive benefit of the AIF concerned and its investors. To comply with this, Proxy has adopted and implemented internal guidelines for exercising voting rights. According to our ownership policy, we shall always vote with the common interest of the investors of the Fund. Voting can only be exercised in accordance with the Fund’s investment policy and/or strategy at hand. Generally, Proxy does not exercise active ownership and will not participate in shareholders' meetings due to the fact that Proxy's management model is not focused on pursuing ownership interests and that Proxy mainly invests in larger, liquid companies. In the event that the Fund in any case would nevertheless invest funds in a share and thereby belong to the major shareholders and Proxy for other reasons deems it to be material for the Fund's return, Proxy will exercise its ownership/voting rights. However, Proxy continuously monitors the development of the funds’ portfolio companies. When voting rights are exercised, Proxy shall always act in accordance with relevant laws and regulations and otherwise according to good practice in the stock market.


Under Article 4 of SFDR, Proxy also strives to be a driving force in sustainability, and believes that shareholder engagement is a lever to achieving this aim. The UN PRI defines stewardship as ‘the use of influence by institutional investors to maximise overall long-term value including the value of common economic, social and environmental assets, on which returns and clients' and beneficiaries' interests depend’. In keeping with this definition, Proxy enactse its stewardship by engaging with broader stakeholders as part of the investment process in order to discuss certain factors and their potential significance. These stakeholders include:

▪ Current or potential investees/issuers

▪ Policy makers and standard setters

The identification of such factors enables Proxy to evaluate the impact to the financial condition or operating performance of an investment, as well as to potentially influence corporate practice. In assessing the sustainability risk associated with underlying investments, Proxy P is assessing the risk that the value of such underlying investments could be materially negatively impacted by an ESG event or condition. The assessment may result in adjustments to financial forecasting and modelling.

As the Fund is not an activist fund, it does not engage in other elements of stewardship such as filing shareholder resolutions and proposals, or fulfilling direct roles on investee boards and board committees. We engage in voting selectively rather than systematically and consistently discuss ways of improving our voting process.

Returns

Historical returns are no guarantee of future returns. The money that is invested in the Fund can both decrease and increase in value and it is not certain that the investor will get back all the deposited capital. The Fund can both shrink and increase significantly in value, due to its composition and the management methods used.
