ESG Report 2022

Foreword from our Co-CEOs

Welcome to our 2022 ESG Report

As the Co-CEOs of our social infrastructure investment company, we are proud to share our latest ESG Report with you. As stewards of important social infrastructure investments, we continue to evolve our reporting and monitoring of our ESG performance, with ESG integrated into our business model. We aim to make a positive impact on society and the environment through our portfolio of social infrastructure investments. This Report highlights our progress and achievements, and supports transparent communication to

all our stakeholders.

We invest in infrastructure that provides essential services and support to communities, such as education, healthcare, blue light (fire and police facilities), affordable housing, modern correctional facilities, clean energy and transport assets.

We made two new acquisitions in 2022: a hydroelectric power plant, which provides clean energy to local communities, and a transportation asset that connects people and communities see page 9.

By investing in these assets, we strive to make a positive impact on society while generating financial returns, in alignment with our SFDR Article 8 classification and the social investment objective we promote. Each of our investment aligns with at least one of six focus Sustainable Development Goals ('SDGs') and we use impactful sustainability indicators to measure the real-world outcomes of our contributions see page 7.

We are proud to report that we have set targets for reducing our corporate and financed emissions, in line with the Net Zero Asset Managers Initiative, aiming to align our investments with the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C see page 18. Our Portfolio Companies are also expected to contribute to the objectives of the Paris Agreement and we are in the process of compiling a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) inventory

for all our Portfolio Companies, by mid-2023 and will include Scope 1, 2 and material Scope 3 emissions.

Social

Governance

We have also conducted a thorough analysis of the climate-related risk exposure of our portfolio, and the results confirm that our portfolio of social infrastructure investments demonstrates a high degree of climate resilience, both presently and in the future. Our approach to climate-related risks and opportunities is disclosed in our Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures ('TCFD') disclosures

see page 48.

Throughout 2022, we maintained our culture of robust governance and strong compliance processes to continue operating in an ethical and transparent manner. We are a signatory to the UN Global Compact ('UNGC') and apply the UNGC's Ten Principles. The external third-party ratings we have received from UN PRI, Sustainalytics and ISS confirm the high ESG standards at BBGI and across all our Portfolio Companies. see page 6.

We have approached Level 2 SFDR legislation mindful of the constantly evolving nature of ESG data collection. We have undertaken extensive engagement at each of our assets, which has led us to successfully obtain the broad range of necessary data points directly from our Portfolio Companies

see page 40.

We are confident that by continuing to prioritise ESG considerations we can make a meaningful difference in the world, while delivering strong financial returns for our investors.
