In 2022, the company acquired SunFunder, a specialist in emerging market clean energy and climate investment based in Nairobi, Kenya. [22] This acquisition was accompanied by the expansion of the fixed income range with the launch of two new strategies. [23]
Also, Mirova's equity funds received high ratings from Climetrics, with 11 funds earning a 5-leaf rating in 2022. [24] The company also ranked highly in the Trophées de la Finance Responsible [25] and Grand Prix de la Finance 2022 (H24), including first place in the ESG Favorite Companies category. [26]
In 2023, Mirova launched its sixth strategy dedicated to energy transition infrastructure, with a fundraising target of up to €2 billion, [27] [28] as well as a second strategy dedicated to sustainable land use. [29] The same year, Mirova and Robeco launched a market initiative to develop global database of avoided emissions factors and associated company-level avoided emissions. [30]
