RI POLICY DEVELOPMENT
Identify performance objectives, current capabilities and tools needed to develop and integrate responsible investment policies throughout the investment process.
Our ESG experts partner with institutional shareholders to shape custom tailored responsible investment policies and related practices designed to fortify due diligence on new and existing portfolio companies.
A team of professionals work closely with institutional shareholders to craft customized responsible investment policies in alignment with shareholder investment objectives, drawing on a host of new and legacy properties, built over time through testing and refinement, and delivered to clients through research, analysis, and screening offerings.
Better Policies through Benchmarking & Custom Research
Our ESG experts help institutional shareholders benchmark their performance against highly regarded and commonly referenced principles outlined in the UN Global Compact, PRI and other established platforms.
Effective policy development often requires refinement. Our ESG experts benchmark practices using proprietary research, delivering customized services to give investors insight on practices that, without responsible investment policies to address them, may place a company’s reputation and shareholder value at risk. ISS ESG’s client services team provides on-going support, including education, training, and practice updates needed to maximize return on investment.
Select areas considered in shaping responsible investment polices include:
- Risk management concerns
- Regulatory requirements
- Corporate governance practices
- Regional and global market expectations
