2021 sustainability highlights

In 2021, we bolstered sustainability across our investment, client, and infrastructure platforms, expanding our team of sustainability-focused professionals and strengthening our leadership and governance ecosystem. We also continued our research on the impacts of climate change on markets, economies, and the portfolios we manage on behalf of our clients. Our focus sharpened on stewardship and engagement, too, as active ownership is a core part goal of our process for aiming to generate competitive returns for our clients. Finally, we made progress on our corporate sustainability. Here are a few highlights from the year. We welcome you to read our full 2021 Sustainability Report below.
