AAIS incorporates ESG and sustainability investing in its investment philosophy. As a pioneer in sub-advisory services, AAIS focuses on ESG due diligences and conducts comprehensive analyses, assessing the CSR principles of asset managers and evaluating ESG integration at the fund strategy level, offering a holistic view.
ABN AMRO Investment Solutions' responsible investment approach operates through a sophisticated four-level classification system, each with increasingly stringent ESG criteria. This framework encompasses rigorous exclusion policies, good governance requirements, sustainability indicators, and active stewardship through engagement and voting.
What truly distinguishes us is our comprehensive ESG due diligence process, which extends beyond traditional financial analysis to identify and manage sustainability risks while fostering positive change in investment practices. AAIS's method of ESG manager selection is a core component of our investment process, ensuring alignment with our Responsible Investment, Stewardship, and Climate policies across all portfolios. Managers are required to demonstrate the integration of ESG factors in their investment practices, showcasing practical and meaningful application beyond mere policy.
