Manulife Investments received a top rated A+ from Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) and was the only Canadian asset manager to be appointed to the PRI 2020 Leaders Group
In a recent Responsible Investments survey, 75% of respondents agreed they would like their financial services provider to inform them about responsible investments
Why climate action?
The future is carbon neutral. How countries and corporations respond to climate change will be integral to their success
Investors have a genuine ability to influence climate change and have the ability to support companies that are doing their part (setting science based targets) to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions
Evidence shows companies with strong ESG profiles have a lower cost of capital, hence greatly improving their profitability and competitive advantage
