Commitments

We are signatory to the United Nations Global Compact , giving us access to thought leadership on sustainability at a global level. The Global Compact is a voluntary initiative that promotes corporate alignment with 10 principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption.

We are also a member of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development and the United Nations Environment Program Finance Initiative. Through participation in these programs we aim to be an active participant in a global dialogue on what it means to be a sustainable business.

In addition, Colonial First State Global Asset Management and CommInsure are both signatories to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). The PRI provides a framework for incorporating environmental, social and corporate governance issues into mainstream investment decision-making.
