Key benefits to our responsible investment approach
We reflect what matters most to you and your investment goals through a robust, integrated process.
AN INTEGRATED APPROACH
We believe that responsible investing is intelligent investing. As a result, we have integrated material environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into those relevant investment practices, including research, portfolio management and active ownership.
In addition, our investment experts are well-versed in responsible investing across the globe. We continue to enhance our process to embrace responsible investing at Russell Investments.
BEYOND THE STANDARD
Our investment approach identifies asset characteristics that are most relevant to your investment needs. We can focus on exposures that are not only sustainable but also material to your investments, enabling you to go beyond the standard.
This results in innovative best practice solutions designed to help you reach your investment goals.
