Our aim over the next 10 years is to bring responsible investors together to work towards sustainable markets that contribute to a more prosperous world for all.
To mark the PRI’s 10-year anniversary in 2016, we undertook a series of initiatives to review progress so far and to create an ambitious and achievable vision for how the PRI and the wider responsible investment community should progress over the next 10 years.
These activities culminated in the launch of A blueprint for responsible investment in 2017, setting the direction of our work for the 10 years ahead.
The PRI cannot solve the challenges the world faces – success relies on enabling our signatories to act.
An ambitious agenda
Through nine priority areas, we plan to tackle some of the most pressing ESG issues in the world today – from climate change to the barriers around a more sustainable financial system – leading to prosperous and inclusive societies for future generations.
We look forward to the day when all investment will be responsible.
In deciding which initiatives should be part of our 10-year vision, we asked: Would the initiative address an issue of importance to our signatories?
Over the next 10 years, the PRI will focus on the following areas of impact:
RESPONSIBLE INVESTORS
We will strengthen, deepen and expand our core work to lead responsible investors in their pursuit of long-term value and to enhance alignment throughout the investment chain.
1. Empower asset owners
2. Support investors incorporating ESG issue
3. Foster a community of active owners
4. Showcase leadership and increase accountability
5. Convene and educate responsible investors
