EdenTree has published its Stewardship Report 2024, its fourth under the Financial Reporting Council’s revised Stewardship Code.
Andy Clark, Chief Executive Officer, EdenTree, said the report has been evolved at every iteration, “with a view to helping our clients develop a thorough understanding of the important role stewardship plays in our investment process, and the impact it has achieved.”
He added that the period covered by the latest report is characterised by change, with the FCA’s Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR) and labelling rules promising to bring much-needed clarity and transparency to the sustainable investment market.
“Transparency is at the heart of our investment ethos. This is supported by our continued demonstration of alignment with the twelve principles outlined in the UK Stewardship Code, which provide a blueprint for accountability when it comes to exercising effective stewardship. Stewardship is central to our investment approach.
“We believe the way we conduct our stewardship and engagement activities empowers us to make sound, responsible investment decisions, and to act as a real force for change in the market.”
