Nest’s responsible investment report showcases the important work our investment team has done over the past year to give your pension a voice in driving positive change.
The eighth annual responsible investment report is now published and available to download.
We’ve continued to manage ESG risks and engaged with some of the largest companies in the world to encourage positive change in their practices, in areas including climate change and human rights.
Why?
Because we want the companies and industries that we invest in today to continue to make money for our members tomorrow. And we believe investing responsibly and being effective stewards of our investments is one of the best ways to do this.
That’s why responsible investment is at the heart of everything we do.
Key highlights for 2023/24:
- Nest launched the ‘Everyday Investor’ campaign, where we invited some Nest members to see first hand where their pension was invested. First off, we set sail to the Lincs offshore windfarm, which is part-owned by you and millions of other Nest members, as one of the thousands of investments you hold! Check out some highlights from the trip.
- Nest continued to engage closely with the companies we invest in, including on treatment of workers, recent pollution incidents, protecting users’ digital rights, consumer health, and forced labour in supply chains.
- Alongside co-chairs of the 30% Club Investor Group, Nest led engagements with companies that needed to improve gender and ethnicity diversity on their boards.
