ESG Integration Can Drive Investment Decisions
Proprietary tools and systems can enable ESG engagement, research and collaboration among our global team of analysts. By following an investor-driven approach, they’re positioned to do the deep fundamental research necessary to truly understand the material ESG risks and opportunities facing issuers.
The Active Engagement Advantage
As active investors, engagement is important to our responsible investment and research processes. Each year, AB analysts engage with leaders of companies and noncorporate entities, including municipalities, supranational and sovereign issuers. We also engage selectively through our proxy voting activities.
These connections allow us to assess, discuss and encourage issuers to better address material ESG risks or take advantage of ESG opportunities. We believe that engagement can drive better research and better outcomes for clients.
