ESG Statement

Metal Supply Experts GmbH - Walchwil / Zug, Switzerland

MSE’s Approach to ESG in Mandates

Metal Supply Experts GmbH integrates environmental, social, and governance considerations as operational requirements, not reporting add-ons. In the sectors MSE operates - commodity trade, biofuels, critical materials, and industrial supply chains - ESG compliance is increasingly a condition of market access, financing, and counterparty acceptance. MSE structures mandates accordingly.

Environmental

MSE supports clients in meeting regulatory and counterparty ESG requirements across the full transaction lifecycle. This includes:

• ISCC EU sustainability certification for biofuel and renewable fuel mandates.
• CBAM-aligned embedded carbon documentation for cross-border steel, cement, aluminium, and fertilizer flows under Regulation (EU) 2023/956.
• Scope 1-3 carbon accounting per shipment where required by EU counterparties or financing institutions.
• Chain-of-custody traceability aligned to ISCC EU, ASI, and EU Union Database standards.

Social & Governance

MSE applies KYC, KYB, and AML screening to all counterparties prior to mandate engagement, in accordance with Swiss AMLA and FATF recommendations. Supply chain due diligence aligned to the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) is incorporated into mandate structuring where applicable. MSE does not engage in mandates involving forced labour supply chains, conflict minerals without verified chain of custody, or jurisdictions subject to applicable sanctions regimes.

Reporting Alignment

MSE’s advisory work references and supports client alignment with the EU Taxonomy Regulation, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), and the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) where mandates involve investment vehicles or EU-regulated counterparties.

Governing Principle

ESG requirements in commodity trade are converging with commercial and regulatory reality. MSE treats them as execution parameters, not aspirational commitments.

Compliance & Sanctions Policy

Metal Supply Experts GmbH - Walchwil / Zug, Switzerland

Sanctions Compliance

Metal Supply Experts GmbH conducts all advisory and execution activities in strict compliance with applicable international sanctions regimes, including measures administered by the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), the European Union, the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), and the United Nations Security Council.

MSE does not engage in any transaction, advisory mandate, or commercial relationship involving sanctioned individuals, entities, vessels, or jurisdictions under applicable Swiss, EU, US, or UN frameworks. Prior to engagement, all counterparties, beneficial owners, and transaction structures are subject to screening against applicable sanctions lists and denied-party databases.

Anti-Money Laundering

MSE operates in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Combating Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing (AMLA) and aligns its procedures with the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). Counterparty due diligence, including KYC and KYB verification, is conducted for all mandates prior to engagement.

MSE does not accept mandates involving funds, assets, or structures of unclear or unverifiable origin.

Governing Framework

All engagements are governed by Swiss law. MSE reserves the right to decline or terminate any mandate where compliance with applicable sanctions, AML, or regulatory requirements cannot be assured.
