PRI Introduction


Responsible Investing

The six Principles for Responsible Investment are a voluntary and aspirational set of investment principles that offer a menu of possible actions for incorporating ESG issues into investment practice.

PRI Introduction

The Principles for Responsible Investment were developed by an international group of institutional investors reflecting the increasing relevance of environmental, social and corporate governance issues to investment practices. The PRI works with its international network of signatories to put the six Principles for Responsible Investment into practice. Its goals are to understand the investment implications of environmental, social and governance issues and to support signatories in integrating these issues into investment and ownership decisions. The six Principles were developed by investors and are supported by the UN. They have more than 4,000 signatories from over 60 countries representing over US$120 trillion of assets.

By joining PRI, investors commit to

1, incorporating ESG in investments and decisions;
2. being active owners;
3. seeking disclosure on ESG issues from investee firms;
4. promoting acceptance and implementation of the Principles;
5. collaborating to implement the principles; and
6. reporting activities and progress toward implementing the Principles.
