Addressing the Big Challenges

We want investors to engage with companies on things that really matter and help change companies’ behaviour to tackle the world’s most intricate problems.

Why are we doing this?

We need to face up to the unprecedented challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and human rights violations. Throughout history, investors and shareholders played a significant role in rising to challenges and help bring about significant change – this was true with slavery, apartheid and other challenges.

 

What are we doing to achieve this?

We want – in consultation with experts and other key players in this field – to define what makes engagement meaningful. We will look for and highlight meaningful engagement where the change is real and transformational and work with investors and others to enhance and replicate those interactions to other investors, sectors and companies.
