Capital Group ESG policy statement

30 MIN REPORT

 


We believe the analysis of material environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues as a part of our fundamental research can help us better understand long-term risks and opportunities for investors.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Proprietary sector-specific research and investment frameworks help our investment professionals assess ESG data and metrics that they have deemed to be material.
  • We monitor our corporate equity, bond and sovereign holdings against available data from third-party providers to surface third-party views of potentially material ESG risks, as well as issuers that may be in violation of international norms.
  • We have a detailed, case-by-case approach to engagement, which can help provide our investment professionals with a better understanding of management teams, strategies and stances on key issues.
