Looking to the future and beyond
For 25 years, our Focus List has guided our responsible investment themes and engagement efforts. It has helped shape our conversations, structure our objectives, and direct our focus where we can make a material impact.
While the Focus List highlighted future engagements and themes, our newly titled NEI Stewardship Roadmap builds on this foundation by sketching a vision of what an ideal company might look like five years from now should our stewardship efforts be successful. Outlining what success looks like gives us a clear destination, sharpening our engagement goals and company expectations.
The NEI Stewardship Roadmap complements NEI’s annual Responsible Investing report, which reviews our progress and accountability. Together, they explain where we are going, why it matters, and how we are advancing. This Roadmap naturally evolves from the Focus List, reflecting the growth of our stewardship practice and our future ambitions.
Engagement themes this year
At NEI, we believe that stewardship drives real-world outcomes creating positive change, and long-term value for clients. We engage portfolio companies and vote on key corporate matters to strengthen risk and capital management, and support responsible growth.
We also engage policymakers, regulators, and standard setters to advance sustainable investing at the highest levels reinforcing our globally recognized role as active participants in the ecosystem of change.
