Scope and process

Our annual evaluation of voting behaviour showed that this is not always in line with our voting guidelines.

Outcomes

 

We started engagement with external managers to improve this.

Asset class
Scope and process

 

Based on the GRESB results of our investments, we share our analysis with the fund managers.

 

Outcomes

These analyses are highly appreciated by our managers and lead to informed discussions on ESG. One of our managers even decided to use our format for their internal and external communication on GRESB.

Topic or issue
          ESG incorporation
        
Conducted by
Asset class
Scope and process

During the due diligence we discussed ESG issues with a manager in China, how they run their business, their ESG policy and how they incorporate ESG factors in their investment and operating process

Outcomes

Now this manager is a leader in ESG, both in Asia and Globally.

Topic or issue
          Lack of ESG policy
        
Conducted by
Asset class
Scope and process

Formerly the manager did not have a formal ESG policy, no staff responsible for ESG practices and low ESG performance on the real estate investments. Since investing with them, we have requested a fund level ESG policy with clear objectives, implementation and reporting about the results.

Outcomes

The manager has accepted our requests and drafted a ESG policy, has appointed an ESG responsible person and has formed a sustainability working group. For two years in a row they participated in the GRESB annual survey and they have shown gradual improvement in the ESG performance compared to their peers in the industry.

Topic or issue
          Company's involvement landfills
        
Conducted by
Asset class
Scope and process

We were invited to co-invest alongside an European GP in a waste services company. The main concern which prompted declining the opportunity was the potential for reputational issues stemming from the company's involvement in landfills.

Outcomes

We didnt invest.
