Annual Report 2018
PRINCIPLES FOR RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT Annual Report 2018 An investor initiative in partnership with UNEP Finance Initiative and UN Global Compact THIS ANNUAL REPORT SETS OUT HOW OUR WORK OVER THE PAST YEAR CONTRIBUTES TO THE GOALS OF OUR 10-YEAR BLUEPRINT FOR RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT 2 ANNUAL REPORT | 2018 3 FOREWORD Chair, Martin Skancke One of our longstanding commitments has been to bring the PRI closer to our signatories through more regional support. Last year, we hired a first-ever head of China to meet the growing interest in responsible investment that we see not only in that country but also in other countries across the region, most notably in Malaysia, Singapore and South Korea. Not content to stand still In Europe, we’ve added a head of Benelux and a head of Nordic, CEE and CIS. A MEANINGFUL COMMITMENT Accountability is another priority in the Blueprint. Following considerable consultation and discussion, the PRI is implementing minimum requirements for signatories. We will work closely with those who are not meeting the requirements in order to help them improve their performance. Failure to meet these requirements by 2020 would result in delisting. But, in order to further move responsible investment forward, it is equally important to recognise leadership. We will highlight and share good practices being carried out by our signatories. At this year’s PRI in Person in San Francisco, we will be announcing the establishment of leadership As we look back over the past year, delivering on the awards, the first of which will be awarded at PRI in Person ambitious agenda outlined in our Blueprint for responsible 2019 in Paris. -
