We help investors and financial institutions to make impact principles visible in their funds and financing structures: from strategy to contracts and fund documentation. We ensure that impact is legally embedded and that agreements regarding mission, governance, remuneration and reporting also hold up in practice. In doing so, we navigate frameworks such as SFDR and the EU Taxonomy and translate these into structures that genuinely work for impact.
We combine legal expertise with the reality of impact dealmaking, innovative financing structures and due diligence with a societal focus. The result is financing that not only complies with today’s rules, but also contributes to the sustainable value of tomorrow.
We translate regulations into concrete structures and documentation. From fund structuring and governance to disclosures and agreements with investors, we ensure that the legal foundation is solid and that your impact objectives are contractually secured.
You build trust with investors and regulators through transparent, compliant, and workable arrangements. This accelerates capital flows, reduces legal uncertainty, and makes your proposition clear and scalable.

When organisations think of the European Pay Transparency Directive, they often immediately focus on salaries, reporting and pay differences. However, it is important to start at the beginning: which employees will fall under these rules?
Many organisations are now aware that the European Pay Transparency Directive (EUPTD) is on its way. What is not always fully top of mind is that the directive has applied to every employer in Europe since this month. This means it is no longer a future issue, but a current obligation.
The EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is an instrument that taxes the CO2 emissions of imported goods. The question is whether the CBAM rules apply to your company and, if yes, which points of civil law you will need to take into consideration.
