Responsible Investing

"At GAM, we take a holistic approach to responsible investment that includes a deep commitment to active investment and stewardship. We firmly believe that monitoring, assessing and, where necessary, actively engaging or withdrawing investments based on a company’s management of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors, are crucial to protect and enhance long-term, sustainable value". Peter Sanderson, Group Chief Executive Officer

Our Approach

As active investors, we believe the inclusion of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors, analysis and research in the investment process is integral to fundamental financial analysis. We believe long-term sustainable returns are dependent on sta¬ble, well-functioning and well governed social, economic and en-vironmental systems. Our approach is based on five pillars:

• Strong governance and policy framework 
• Embedding ESG at the portfolio level to manage risk and drive alpha 
• Proactive voting and engagement to drive positive change
• Effective oversight and reporting through transparency
• Industry collaboration to improve policy and practices 

We are committed to investment leadership, innovation and sustainable thinking to protect and enhance our clients’ financial future through our investment solutions. 

We are proud signatories to the Principles for Responsible Investment. Our latest PRI Transparency Report is available here.

Active Stewardship

Stewardship and the principles of good governance are central to our approach to responsible investment. As investors, we recognise our stewardship responsibilities and use our influence to encourage companies to focus on long-term, sustainable value creation and to positively influence the outcomes for our clients, society and the environment.

We support global standards of good governance, including the International Corporate Governance Network (ICGN) Global Governance Principles, the UK Corporate Governance Code and the G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance and support the stewardship principles outlined in Japan’s Stewardship Code, the Singapore Stewardship Principles for Responsible Investors and the UK Stewardship Code (2020).
