Stewardship is the direct engagement between us, BNP Paribas Asset Management, as investors and the companies we invest in. It is the process that converts our environmental, social and governance (ESG) policies into action. Ultimately, the aim is to drive positive change and safeguard the long-term value of the companies.
Listen to this Talking Heads podcast with Rachel Crossley, Head of Stewardship for Europe within the Global Sustainability Centre at BNP Paribas Asset Management, and Andrew Craig, Co-head of the Investment Insights Centre. Rachel talks about representing BNP Paribas Asset Management in key investor networks, and the role stewardship plays when working with policymakers on key issues relating to sustainable finance.

Please note that articles may contain technical language. For this reason, they may not be suitable for readers without professional investment experience. Any views expressed here are those of the author as of the date of publication, are based on available information, and are subject to change without notice. Individual portfolio management teams may hold different views and may take different investment decisions for different clients. This document does not constitute investment advice. The value of investments and the income they generate may go down as well as up and it is possible that investors will not recover their initial outlay. Past performance is no guarantee for future returns. Investing in emerging markets, or specialised or restricted sectors is likely to be subject to a higher-than-average volatility due to a high degree of concentration, greater uncertainty because less information is available, there is less liquidity or due to greater sensitivity to changes in market conditions (social, political and economic conditions). Some emerging markets offer less security than the majority of international developed markets. For this reason, services for portfolio transactions, liquidation and conservation on behalf of funds invested in emerging markets may carry greater risk.
