As a United Nations-supported Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI) signatory, we are pleased to share the results of our 2025 Assessment Report.
At CC&L One, we recognize that Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors may have an impact on investment performance across a range of time horizons and asset classes. As a result, many of our affiliated investment teams research the ESG risks and opportunities of their investments and engage with company management on related issues.
Furthermore, as a business, we want to be good corporate citizens and have an active corporate social responsibility program.
Responsible Investing with affiliated investment teams
Visit our affiliates’ websites for more information on how our affliated investment teams incorporate and engage in ESG issues.
We typically think of ESG issues in investment as having two dimensions.
The first, integration, involves integrating ESG factors in investment selection.
The second, active ownership refers to how we influence investees to address ESG issues through engagement, proxy voting and collaboration with other investors and advocacy organizations.
Because integration is specific to a particular investment strategy, the approach differs across our affiliated investment teams. In contrast, significant commonalities exist when it comes to active ownership and we have a central specialized Stewardship & Engagement team to work with our investment teams on engagements, voting and collaborative initiatives.
Corporate Social
Responsibility
We want to be responsible corporate citizens, which means having a positive impact on the communities where we live and work. In pursuit of this, we are continuously looking for ways to review and improve our programs and processes, so they align with the values of the people who work here and so we can support our community.
We’re committed to:
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging
The health and wellness of our employees
Environmentally sustainable business practices
Giving back to our communities through volunteering and our CC&L Foundation
