CaixaBank reinforces its commitment to responsible investment with the new PRI ratings

MADRID, 4 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The managers of the CaixaBank Group, VidaCaixa, CaixaBank AM and BPI Gestão de Ativos, have reaffirmed their maximum commitment to responsible investment according to the Principles of Responsible Investment (PRI), an initiative that has the support of the United Nations.

The entity points out that this new recognition ratifies the insurance company's commitment to Socially Responsible Investment (SRI), through the integration of social, environmental and good governance (ASG) criteria in its investment decisions.

On the other hand, the recognition of CaixaBank AM in direct investment equities has been achieved thanks to the integration of ESG factors in the investment processes (Direct-Listed equity - active fundamental). In this area, it is worth noting the identification of ESG factors in terms of materiality and their incorporation and monitoring in the investment processes, as well as the incorporation into risk management of ESG incidents that could occur in the managed assets.

"At VidaCaixa we understand SRI as a way of managing investments and not as a philosophy to apply to a product in our portfolio. For this reason, 100% of the assets we manage have included ASG aspects in investment decisions for more than 20 years. We are very satisfied that PRI has once again recognized the company's leadership in this regard", stated the CEO of VidaCaixa, Javier Valle.
