We focus on ESG-related issues that may impact the long-term value of an investment.
Our Stewardship Approach
We engage with companies when we believe we need more clarity on how they are approaching ESG-related issues or to advocate for changes which we believe may benefit shareholders in the long run. We are also committed to acting as true stewards of our clients' capital through active proxy voting and collaborating with industry participants.

Our Climate Change Principles
We consider climate change a systemic risk affecting economies, companies, and investors. Our approach to climate change is aligned with our overall philosophy of integrating all sources of risk and return in our investment processes.
As an investment manager of diversified asset classes, we consider climate change as an important area of focus. We actively engage with companies and leverage our asset ownership positions to encourage improvements in industry collaborations including Climate Action 100+, CDP, and the UNEP FI TCFD investor pilots, with the first two furthering our company engagement efforts and the latter developing a better understanding of climate related investment risks.
Our approach continues to evolve to help position our portfolios to capitalize on investment opportunities arising from an accelerated transition to a low carbon economy and manage climate-related physical and transition risks.

Our Dedicated Teams
Our dedicated Sustainable Investment Team supports our investment teams with ESG research, ESG integration and stewardship efforts.
ESG Integration
We strive for an integrated ESG engagement process for our investment products. We proactively evolve as ESG data matures, materiality comes into focus, and regulatory frameworks expand market awareness. Under this approach, material ESG factors are reviewed alongside traditional investment criteria. Implications arise if an ESG factor changes the intended risk or return profile of an investment.
