Continuing to drive long-term value through stewardship
Stewardship has been at the heart of our Responsible Investment approach since the outset and is now firmly embedded as a central pillar of our 2025-2028 Climate strategy. Our 2025 Engagement Report, together with its Brief version, illustrates how our dedicated experts continue to turn this strategic commitment into concrete action.
In 2025, we engaged with nearly 3,000 companies across all geographies and sectors through proactive dialogue and rigorous voting activity. Throughout the year, we continued to support companies in strengthening the integration of environmental and social considerations into their business practices, while promoting strong governance standards to help build resilience in the face of today’s most pressing sustainability challenges.
Led by our research-driven approach and dedicated experts, we are well-positioned to identify emerging themes such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence, or access to health, which may have a significant impact on companies and on our clients’ portfolios.
