Responsible investment at Insight Investment
For Insight, responsible investment is about value and sustainability.
We believe all risks, including environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks, can affect the value of an investment and therefore should be considered in investment decisions where possible and relevant. Many of our clients also wish to apply ESG criteria to help deliver sustainability outcomes, and we have developed strategies to enable them to do so.
Our proprietary models evolve to help address the gaps in third-party ESG data. They aim to inform our engagement with companies and governments as we seek to better understand the ESG issues they face and how they are managed.
We play an active role in specific advocacy initiatives relating to regulatory and market developments. We prioritise issues which affect the interests of our clients, and which contribute to the long term resilience of markets.
To help clients stay abreast of relevant developments, we publish regular market insights, views from industry experts and reports detailing our efforts and the difference they make.
