New RI Initiatives:
China Climate Engagement Initiative (CCEI) Supported by the PRI, the China Climate Engagement Initiative aims to promote a green, low-carbon and high-quality transi- tion of companies in China. The initiative facilitates institutional investors in leveraging their active ownership influence and engaging in more coordinated and sophisticated dialogues with Chinese companies and industries. Through this collabo- ration, we seek to support credible climate transition pathways in one of the world’s most systemically important markets. Guidance of Responsible Investment in Defence We are members of the steering committee of this multistake- holder initiative aiming at the development, promotion and adoption of an internationally recognised and credible set of Guidance for Responsible Investment in Defence-related companies supported by practical implementation tools.
Impact Finance Belgium Impact Finance Belgium is a membership association founded in 2023 that brings together investors, foundations, banks and public actors to grow the impact investing ecosystem in Belgium. The organisation does not invest directly; instead, it mobilises and coordinates stakeholders through research, pol- icy advocacy, working groups and events aimed at increasing the share of capital delivering measurable social and environ- mental impact. Our membership strengthens our engagement in the European impact investing landscape. ShareAction Chemicals Working Group The ShareAction Chemicals Working Group is a collaborative engagement initiative supported by the NGO ShareAction. The group focuses on accelerating climate transition strate- gies among key European chemicals companies. Through coordinated investor action, the initiative promotes alignment with 1.5°C pathways by setting high-impact, sector-specific expectations grounded in in-depth research. Participation strengthens our engagement on transition risk in one of the most emissions-intensive industrial sectors.
