We continue to maintain an active dialogue with our operating partners, which includes engagement on sustainability-related topics and issues.
We proactively monitor the performance of our portfolio assets and ensure early identification of, and engagement on, any sustainability related impacts, risks and opportunities. Our ongoing engagement includes regular discussions between our operating partners and our technical, legal and investment teams, which also allows for the opportunity to understand their sustainability practices, and transition plans and any sustainability risks to be mitigated.
Engaging with operators
In 2025, we continued to monitor our producing assets’ sustainability performance through our operator engagement process, where we evaluated key metrics and data published in our operators’ annual sustainability reports and further engaged with operating partners to obtain specific sustainability‑linked information not available in the public domain.
In 2025, in line with the results of our Materiality Assessment and evolving sustainability disclosure expectations in relation to climate and biodiversity, we enhanced our operator sustainability monitoring to ensure appropriate understanding of our investments’ sustainability risks and opportunities. As such, for operations in 2025, our sustainability operator monitoring focused on the following key metrics of our portfolio operations:
- climate;
- atmospheric emissions;
- waste management;
- energy;
- health and safety;
- water management;
- diversity; and
- biodiversity.
Community initiatives with operators
Ecora maintains an ongoing dialogue with its operating partners to identify opportunities to collaborate on charitable initiatives that benefit communities near the Group’s investments. The Group is committed to supporting projects that deliver positive, long-term community impact and contribute to breaking the cycle of poverty. Accordingly, Ecora continues to explore partnerships focused on healthcare, education and nutrition. In 2025, the Group once again partnered with Vale, operator of the Voisey’s Bay mine, to support the Community Food Sharing Association in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.
