With 31 recommendations<\/strong>, the report aims to provide a roadmap to show how capital markets can contribute to sustainable development in the best possible way.<\/p>\n

Shareholders for Change cited in Recommendation #31<\/h2>\n

One of the recommendations (number 31) refers to the \u201cengagement of institutional investors\u201d and recommends \u201csharing information and background research\u201d with investor platforms like Arbeitskreis Kirchlicher Investoren (AKI), CRIC e. V., Net Zero Asset Owner Alliance and Shareholders for Change<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are absolutely delighted to receive this recognition. Etica Funds is an early promoter and founding member of SfC and even hosted the network\u2019s constitution at its Milanese headquarters. We are thrilled that the German government has recognised our work. It is an honour and a challenge to work side-by-side with other ethical investment leaders beyond national borders. Moreover, this is a truly European project in which the value that we can create together exceeds the sum of the individual companies<\/em>,\u201d announced Luca Mattiazzi<\/strong>, General Manager of Etica Funds.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are extremely proud to be cited in this report as a good practice in the field of engagement with companies and countries on social, environmental and governance issues<\/em>,\u201d said Tommy Piemonte<\/strong>, Head of Sustainable Investment Research at Bank f\u00fcr Kirche und Caritas eG, a German founding member of Shareholders for Change.<\/p>\n
