ESG Investing at Fidante
Fidante’s approach to ESG is centred and backed by Challenger Group’s leadership in both our Corporate Sustainability and Responsible Investment programs.
At Fidante, we believe:
- We are stewards of capital and our contribution to society is an important driver for our business and the enhancement of the performance of our customers’ investments;
- The economy is in transition to the sustainable economy. We are cognisant of the future economy into which our customers will live. We have the opportunity to make a positive difference in how that future looks through active ownership and investment activity;
- Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) issues can have a material impact on long-term investment performance;
- The integration of ESG factors into the investment process helps us and our investment managers to build a more resilient organisation that mitigates related financial and non-financial risks.
