Sustainability Measures in Altamar
Environmental Measures
With regard to environmental impact policies, measures have been put in place to reduce energy consumption and pollution caused by the waste generated in the offices. In addition, policies are implemented to reduce the use of paper, not only because of its impact on the environment, but also to protect confidential information and personal data to which the Firm has access.
As part of this commitment to the environment, Altamar has signed the ‘Global Investor Statement to Governments on Climate Change’ in line with the Paris Agreement.
Social Measures
With regard to social impact measures, Altamar seeks to impact both internally and externally. Altamar ensures that employees are aware of the rapid evolution of market trends through training sessions, courses and other awareness measures. Likewise, the values of respect and integrity are incorporated into all areas of the organization and, on a regular basis, information on both the market and ESG is shared with the entire firm through the intranet, internal meetings and the monthly ESG newsletter. In addition, education and solidarity support is promoted through the Altamar Foundation.
