Pursuing active ownership is a vital part of LGT Capital Partners’ (LGT CP) investment approach for sustainable equity strategies, representing one of four pillars to integrate environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into the investment process. It is their responsibility as sustainable investors to use their position to try and influence the behaviors of companies to act in the most favorable way for society, investors and other relevant stakeholders. Their efforts cover a wide range of issues, including strategy, financial and non-financial performance and risk, capital structure, social and environmental impact and corporate governance.

Here they report on the engagement and proxy voting carried out by LGT CP’s Sustainable Equities investment team on behalf of investors during 2021.
