Responsible investing: where the rubber hits the road

 

The Principles of Responsible Investing (PRI) launched by the United Nations Secretary-General in 2006, sought to bring environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) concerns into mainstream investment practices. The PRI aims to ensure that asset owners, asset managers and related service who are signatories to the Principles ‘walk-the-talk’. Our second instalment of the Sustainable Enterprise Seminar Series for 2010 will examine the state-of-play in responsible investment and future directions for the responsible investment movement. Guest speakers include Professor Michael Drew and Dr Robert Bianchi, Griffith University and Philip Greenheld, Senior Manager (Policy and Operations) from QSuper.
