Responsible investment (RI)

Responsible investment refers to the incorporation of environmental, social, and governance factors (ESG) into the selection, and management of investments. “RI has boomed in recent years as investors have recognized the opportunity for better risk-adjusted returns, while at the same time, contributing to important social and environmental issues”. (www.riacanada.ca)

 

For clients interested in Responsible Investing (RI), Brown Investment Group at CIBC Wood Gundy offers RI, using Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) research and analysis provided by Sustainalytics. The screens identify companies with controversial product involvement and/or implication in controversies, while evaluating their overall ESG performance. Brown Investment Group completes an annual review of your holdings. There are numerous studies showing a positive link between ESG screening and risk (Canadian Responsible Investment Mutual fund. Risk/Return characteristics; 2015; RIA; 2018)

In order to achieve this, we are working closely with Catalyst and their important Catalyst Accord initiative. We do not believe mandatory quotas are the right approach. Instead, we are building a strong foundation of business leaders who are committed to meaningful, sustainable gender balance in business leadership. Our name comes from an aspirational goal that we believe can be achieved in Canada through focused efforts by the business community. As in all business ventures, ‘what gets measured gets managed’ – a numeric goal provides real impetus for change, and our goal.
