rezonanz Joins the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment as a Signatory
On Tuesday, December 3rd, we hosted a webinar to delve into the methodology behind Voting for Sustainability and share more about our rezonanz offering. It was a pleasure to welcome a diverse audience of asset managers, pension funds, and responsible investment organizations.
To kick off the session, we posed two key questions to the audience:
-Should we disclose all asset managers' ranks in future iterations of Voting for Sustainability?
-Should we disclose all pension funds' ranks in future iterations?
The response was a resounding yes for both questions. While the consensus was clear, the reasoning behind it was variedβoffering valuable insights into the priorities and expectations of our participants. A detailed breakdown of the results is provided below.

We are delighted to announce that rezonanz is now the newest service provider to sign the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI)!π By joining thousands of asset owners and investment managers committed to the six principles of responsible investment, we are taking a significant leap towards our mission of amplifying responsible investors' voices.

A Commitment to Responsible Investment
Becoming a UNPRI signatory reflects our deep commitment to integrating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations into our services and operations. The UNPRI principles align perfectly with our goal to empower investors to make informed, sustainable decisions.
β
The six principles provide a framework for integrating ESG issues into investment practice:
- Incorporate ESG issues into investment analysis and decision-making processes.
- Be active owners and incorporate ESG issues into ownership policies and practices.
- Seek appropriate disclosure on ESG issues by the entities in which we invest.
- Promote acceptance and implementation of the Principles within the investment industry.
- Work together to enhance our effectiveness in implementing the Principles.
- Report on our activities and progress towards implementing the Principles.
