France Invest Software
France Invest — the Association of Investors for Growth — represents over 400 members, including almost all private equity, venture capital, and infrastructure funds active in the French market.
For several years, it has made the ESG approach a strategic priority for its members by developing a specific reporting framework tailored to the realities of the French market.
Harnest covers the 75 France Invest data points in a unique environment, interoperable with Invest Europe and WeAreEurope.
Who is the France Invest framework for?
The France Invest framework applies to private equity funds active in the French market:
- Private equity, venture capital, and infrastructure funds that are members of France Invest and subject to the association's ESG reporting obligations
- Funds whose institutional LPs — pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds — require structured and comparable ESG data
- Management teams that want to use ESG data as a lever for value creation in their portfolio companies
- Funds wishing to align their France Invest reporting with their Invest Europe and WeAreEurope obligations
France Invest, a value creation tool
France Invest's philosophy on ESG is clear: the goal is not to produce reports to satisfy institutional investors. It's about using ESG data to identify levers for operational performance in portfolio companies.
A company that effectively manages its energy consumption, has a low turnover rate, and practices transparent governance generally performs better in the long term.
