At BNP Paribas Asset Management, we strive for a world where all investments are responsible. For us, responsible investment is not just about a financial equation. We know that a broader approach is necessary.
What is SRI?
Our SRI approach is designed to combine strong economic performance with a low social and environmental impact by investing in businesses and public entities that contribute to sustainable development. By influencing the governance and actions of stakeholders, SRI promotes an environmentally responsible economy.
What is ESG?
ESG incorporates Environmental, Social and Governance selection criteria in companies in which we invest, to comply with the 10 principles of the United Nations Global Compact on respect for human rights and workers’ rights, the protection of the environment and the fight against corruption.
Our approach also involves the application of “sector policies” that set a framework for, or prohibit investment in, companies operating in controversial sectors with a high environmental impact and poor social practices or governance. These sectors include weapons, palm oil, paper pulp, mining activities and tobacco Companies that do not comply with our ESG criteria are excluded from our investment universe.
