Standards

We recognise our role to promote best practice in stewardship, which is consistent with our aim of seeking long term investment returns. The Pension Fund is a signatory to:

• the Financial Reporting Council's UK Stewardship Code 2020 that sets out 11 principles for asset owners to follow, and
• United Nations Principles of Responsible Investment (PRI) which promotes sustainable investment through the incorporation of environmental, social and governance factors in investment decision making.
