UNEP FI is currently implementing four projects on securities investment.
These projects build on the outcomes of two complementary reports released at the Global Compact Leaders Summit (2004): Current Projects
- The Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) - This process aims to capitalise on the common ground between the goals of institutional investors and the sustainable development objectives of the United Nations by developing best-practice principles for responsible investment. The project is convened by the UN Secretary-General and implemented by UNEP FI and the UN Global Compact. Visit the PRI website.
- Emerging Market Responsible Investment – Determine how responsible investment and emerging market equity investment techniques can be paired to increase and stabilise equity investment in emerging markets.
- Financial Materiality / Materiality 2 – Building on the 2004 project, Materiality 2 will commission and comparatively analyse additional sector reports on the materiality of environmental social and corporate governance information.
- The Beacon Project – A survey of the perceptions of young financial analysts on the financial importance of environmental, social and corporate governance issues. Produced in partnership with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development Young Managers Team.
- Global Reporting Initiative Investors Consultation Group – Understanding how the next generation of Global Reporting Initiative guidelines can be made more relevant and efficient for investors.
