Sustainable Conviction
COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABILITY
We have always championed sound corporate governance, responded to current and future environmental challenges and respected social norms which are clear drivers of long-term sustainable value. This vision is integrated in our mission and value statement.
20 Years of Sustained Dedication
Conviction & Commitment
Our goal is to offer first-rate expertise while promoting our shared values and beliefs. ESG considerations are a foundation of our value proposition and fundamental to our research and investment processes.
Membership & Signatory
One of our core values is engaging. We are members of organisations that promote sustainable principles and have engaged collaboratively for many years as well as on our own initiative. These organisations advocate for sustainable investment and provide ongoing insight into ESG challenges and opportunities.
We joined the UN PRI in 2011 and have always taken a holistic approach to investing, recognising that environmental, social, and governance issues are interconnected. As a result, we are members and supporters of organisations and initiatives focused on both environmental and social priorities.
On the environmental side, we joined the NZAM initiative in 2022 to increase global financial ambitions in the fight against climate change.
DPAM became a signatory to the TCFD recommendations in 2018. One year later we joined Climate Action 100+ and became a signatory of FAIRR, a collaborative engagement initiative aimed at reducing the environmental impact of the food value chain through the promotion of sustainable protein options. Recognising the pressing nature of environmental and biodiversity concerns, we joined the Finance for Biodiversity Pledge in December 2020. This pledge calls on financial leaders to protect and restore biodiversity through their activities and investment decisions.
On the social side, we have taken steps to support sustainable investments that respect fundamental human rights by joining the Investor Alliance for Human Rights in June 2020. We have also committed to promoting the responsible use of digital rights and technologies such as facial recognition in 2021. More recently, we joined Advance, a social collaborative initiative launched by PRI, which aims to be the second-largest collaborative initiative after Climate Action 100+.
