Eastspring Investments: Responsible Investment Report 2022

Harmonised Responsible Investment Policy

In 2022, Eastspring embarked on a project to overhaul, substantially uplift, and harmonise our RI policy and approach to ESG integration across all our investment teams. An updated, singular Eastspring Group Responsible Investment policy was approved by the Eastspring Sustainability Committee in the latter part of 2022, updating previous exclusion, proxy voting, and ESG policies and principles. The Group RI Policy went into force on 1 January 2023, with the implementation of expanded scope set for the first half of 2023. Throughout this process, we leveraged on the ESG Experts in Asia Workstream for information sharing and consultation. This workstream provided the forum for different LBUs in the region to bring awareness to the different stages of RI developments in their markets so that the policy could take these differences into consideration. For more information on our governance structure, please refer to page 66.
