Institutional investors play a critical role in shaping corporate behavior and promoting sustainable value creation. This event focuses on how active ownership can be leveraged to achieve long-term financial and sustainability objectives.

Speakers and panelists will be exploring key questions such as: how to distinguish meaningful engagement from symbolic efforts, balance short-term performance with long-term ESG goals, and measure the effectiveness of engagement strategies. The discussion will also cover the role of collaboration with other investors, proxy voting, shareholder resolutions, and emerging technologies in enhancing engagement outcomes.

Regional dynamics between the US and EU, fiduciary responsibilities, and governance structures across the investment value chain will also be examined to provide clarity on accountability and best practices. Practical insights will be shared to help institutional investors strengthen their engagement programs, ensuring that capital allocation not only delivers financial returns but also drives sustainable change.

Join us for an in-depth conversation on advancing active ownership as a strategic tool for long-term impact and responsible investing.
