The best future for our customers is one where we collectively achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Stewardship

We act as the responsible steward of the assets we invest in on behalf of our customers.

Change is best driven by being an active owner and engaging with companies where there are issues to be addressed. 

Integration

We believe that incorporating economic, social and governance (ESG) factors within the investment process will help manage risk and generate better returns.
