Responsible Investment

Queenspoint investment and asset management policies

Queenspoint is a long term investment vehicle and asset manager which acquires, holds and actively operates middle market core infrastructure assets -in fields such as transport, energy, telecommunications, waste, water and others- largely under PPP contractual and risk allocation structures.

Queenspoint´s underlying core infra businesses offer long-term cash yield with a stable risk profile. Therefore, Queenspoint is perfectly aligned with its shareholders´ commercial requirements as the premiums of Allianz clients need to be responsibly invested to meet long-term liabilities.

As a result, Queenspoint´s responsible investment and asset management is a continuation of ACP´s values and responsible investment policies.

Responsible Investing

ACP as Allianz Group's captive investment manager for alternative assets strives to invest sustainably across their three asset classes, Private Equity, Renewables and Infrastructure. ACP incorporates Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors into ACP´s investment processes, for example through an exclusion policy, research, corporate and country analysis, monitoring and risk management.

ACP is committed to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI). Our parent company, Allianz SE, is a signatory to the UN PRI, and so in addition to integrating ESG principles in our investment process, ACP also incorporates these into their ownership policies and practices and aim for appropriate disclosure on ESG issues. ACP´s commitment covers all Allianz insurance assets.
