Mandatum once again achieved excellent results in the UN PRI (Principles for Responsible Investment) assessment. The company participated in twelve evaluated areas and received the highest star rating in seven of them.
Mandatum committed to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment in 2011. Accordingly, the company is committed to incorporating ESG factors in its investment processes, to being an active owner, and to promoting the principles of responsible investment.
The PRI annual assessment measures responsible investment practices and the implementation of the UN PRI’s principles in investment activities. The newly published assessment covers the year 2024.
Mandatum participated in twelve evaluated areas in the assessment. It received the highest five-star scores in seven categories, which were active indirect fixed income, indirect private equity, indirect real estate, direct listed equity, direct real estate, direct private equity, and direct fixed income corporate. Additionally, it participated in the passive indirect fixed income category for the first time, immediately receiving four stars.
“I’m delighted that we once again achieved excellent results, as the standards for the participants continue to rise year after year. I would also like to thank our clients for these excellent results. We have continued our active dialogue on diverse sustainability themes throughout the year,” comments Mandatum’s Head of Responsible Investments Sari Rajakangas.
PRI is an international non-profit organisation that annually assesses its members’ investment activities and responsible investment practices. The assessment tells the organisation how well the UN PRI’s principles are implemented in the organisation’s investment activities by asset class and which areas of investment operations can be improved.
“Particularly climate is at the core of our sustainability work. We have a wide range of asset classes, so the most suitable ways to promote sustainability also vary. For example, in Private Equity investments we work very hands-on with companies and directly influence their operations – including promoting good governance and integrating sustainability into their value creation strategy. With the fund-type investments of our Private Debt and European Real Estate programmes, we focus on a comprehensive ESG due diligence process as well as annual analyses and feedback for the managers administering the funds,” Rajakangas continues.
