ESG commitments 2022-2025: Tracking our progress

While we often speak about the value of engaging with the companies we invest in on behalf of our clients in private, we also recognise the need for public accountability. In our 2021 Stewardship Report, we set out several ESG engagement and performance commitments for 2022 to 2025 in a drive towards greater self-accountability and transparency with our clients. Raine Adams shares an update on our progress.

For 2022, the following ESG engagement commitments were made:

Environmental: Air pollution – three companies will be contacted on compliance with SA air emission standards.
Social: Safety in mining – three identified high-risk companies in our clients’ portfolios will be contacted based on a 2021 sectoral safety review.
Below, we detail the outcomes of these commitments and provide an update on the progress we have made towards fulfilling our longer-term commitments.
