Calling for Enhanced Transparency on Racial and Ethnic Diversity and Climate Change

In August 2020, our Global CIO, Rick Lacaille, released a letter on our diversity strategy and goals, with an announcement on our expectations for public companies regarding racial and ethnic diversity. To build on this guidance further and in an effort to share our annual stewardship priorities, our President & CEO, Cyrus Taraporevala, released our proxy voting guidance in January 2021 sharing how we intend to use our voice and vote to hold boards accountable on climate change and racial and ethnic diversity.
