Sustainable investing

As an institutional investor, we have a fiduciary duty to maximise returns over the long term for the benefit of our investors.

We also recognise that we have a role to play in supporting the broader environmental, social and economic systems that we depend upon for our portfolios to prosper.

Our sustainable investing approach is closely aligned with the United Nations Global Compact and the United Nations-supported Principles for Responsible Investment, to which IFM has been a signatory since 2008.* We integrate sustainable investing principles into our investment processes and active ownership activities by engaging with portfolio companies, policy makers and working with other institutions to bring about positive change.

More than 30 years ago, IFM Investors was conceived and created by a collective of pension funds. Today, we are a leading global asset investment manager, working to create a better future for working people.
