We aim to improve companies' performance in environmental and social matters. We talk to the companies and vote on resolutions.
Active ownership may relate to a specific problem that a company has encountered and needs to deal with, but it can also be part of an approach where companies are encouraged to work proactively on certain issues. Sometimes we conduct our active ownership process in collaboration with other investors, e.g. within the framework of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI).
As an active owner we also participate in a unique investor collaboration for a sustainable future. The project "Sustainable Value Creation" is managed by fifteen of the largest Swedish institutional investors on the Stockholm stock exchange. The aim is to highlight the importance of companies managing sustainability issues as a prerequisite for long-term value creation in companies and long-term financial returns for investors.
