“While our focus is naturally on other things right now, we should not forget that we still face challenges in areas like climate change and society in general,” says Senior Responsible Investment Specialist Petra Stassen. In this podcast we talked to Petra and her colleague Adrie Heinsbroek, Principal Responsible Investment, about our recently published Responsible Investing Report 2019. They discuss our role as an investor and our responsibility to put our clients’ capital to work in a way that fulfills their financial and sustainable ambitions. The report covers a range of topics – from the importance of financial materiality in ESG integration to the concrete results of our voting and engagement activities. What do our responsible investing experts regard as the highlights of 2019, and where will their focus be in 2020 and beyond?
