The Board is grateful to Obviam AG and all its staff for the excellent collaboration and the achievement of positive financial and impact results since SIFEM’s founding in 2011.
With the onboarding of responsAbility Investments AG as of March 2023, SIFEM will operate in a new set-up. While responsAbility will act as its portfolio manager and be responsible for investment sourcing, advisory, and oversight, Tameo Impact Fund Solutions SA is the business services manager and assumes responsibility for policy-related and representative functions, portfolio oversight, ESG & impact reporting, risk & compliance, and communication & administration. This setup ensures good governance, efficient and effective operations, and the leverage of existing expertise and track record.
The SIFEM Board looks forward to working with the new partners over the coming years.
