A brief description of how the institution (or its foundation) has engaged in shareholder advocacy that promotes sustainability during the previous 3 years. :
We perform negative screenings of direct investments in relation to our social responsibility clause and regularly monitor direct investments. Any new investment managers are expected to adhere to our clause and if/when a questionable investment comes up they are to contact us. This has happened at least once in the last year.
We also hold many comingled funds (hedge, LP’s, etc) that don’t always share the underlying investments and of which we have no direct control. However, we share our social responsibility clause with all potential investment managers and monitor those that we have direct control over on a regular basis.
None
