CULTURE & VALUES
INDUSTRY & COMMUNITY COMMITMENTS We continue to solidify our commitment to integrating ESG into our firm and investment process through memberships in leading organizations that align with our goals and provide forums for thoughtful discussions on evolving topics, initiatives, and disclosure standards. We also seek to identify industry groups that provide our firm the opportunity to amplify our voice and make an impact through collaborative action.
We are proud members of:
Standards & Regulations
UN Principles for Responsible Investing The United Nations Principles for Responsible Investing (UN PRI) is an internationally recognized proponent of responsible investment. As a signatory of UN PRI, RPIA publicly demonstrates our commitment to responsible investment and place it at the heart of a global community seeking to build a more sustainable financial system. In 2024, RPIA attended the PRI In-Person Conference in Toronto where we gained insights from panels of industry professionals and engaged in thoughtful discussions with global investors. Please see our 2024 UN PRI Assessment and Transparency Reports to learn more about RPIA’s responsible investing practices. FSB Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures In 2015, the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) was created by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) to recommend climate-related disclosure requirements that supports market transparency and more informed capital allocation. RPIA has published an annual TCFD report since 2021. Please see our 2024 TCFD Report (link TBD) to read more about RPIA’s efforts in these areas. As of October 2023, the TCFD fulfilled its remit and was disbanded. The TCFD’s recommendations were adopted by the IFRS Foundation’s International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) while creating the IFRS S2 Standards. RPIA is dedicated to monitoring industry trends and transitioning our annual TCFD reporting to align with IFRS S2 standards.
The Sustainability Accounting Standards Board Founded in 2011, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) is a non-profit organization that establishes industry-specific sustainability accounting standards. As a member, RPIA partakes in the organization’s mission to help businesses globally identify, manage, and report on the sustainability topics that are material to their business and important to their investors. Additionally, the SASB materiality matrix is embedded in RPIA’s ESG Integration efforts and the RP Barometer.
