– Business and Asset Owner’s Forum
– Global Asset Owner’s Forum
• Announced in July 2017 that they are going to increase
their ESG holdings from 3% to 10% of AUM in their
home market, figuring that at 10%, they would be
“impacting results” of their own performance
Norges Bank Investment Management
(Norway)
• Second largest pension fund in the world with AUM of
$1.18 trillion CAD
• Active investor (vs. activist investor)
• Focus areas for ESG activities: climate change,

Asset Managers
• Increasing sizes of responsible investment/stewardship
teams over the past year:
– Blackrock: 20 to 38
– Vanguard: 10 to 20
– State Street: 5 to 13
• Signatories to various investor groups:
– UN Principles for Responsible Investment
– Investor Stewardship Group
– Most major global markets have stewardship codes (Canada
and the US do not)
In Summary
• The GFC was the impetus to require greater
responsibility from institutional investors outside
of North America
• Traditional interpretation of fiduciary duty no longer
applies
• The momentum towards greater ESG disclosures
is increasing, creating investment opportunities in
companies demonstrating strong ESG
performance
• G is part of a growing focus area
