The annual management reports highlight the shareholder engagement initiatives on ESG issues in a dedicated section.

Our references
We have selected the principles published by major international investors and the associations of which we are a member, notably the International Corporate Governance Network (ICGN) and the Association Française de Gestion Financière (AFG).
Phitrust has also been a signatory of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) since 2007. Phitrust’s ESG incorporation policy responds directly to Principle n°2, in particular with regard to the need to engage with issuing companies on strategic governance issues, including environmental and social issues. Phitrust also stands out among asset management companies by obtaining the highest ratings (A+ and A) in the latest “Assesment Report” for the Strategy & Governance and Direct & Active Ownership modules for the listed equity asset class.
Finally, our social impact investment company Phitrust Partenaires, a European Social Entrepreneurship Fund (EuSEF), also has ESUS (Entreprise Solidaire d’Utilité Sociale) public approval and the Finansol* label, which distinguishes solidarity savings products from other savings products for the general public.
*The Finansol label guarantees the solidarity and transparency of Phitrust Partenaires. The capital invested is not guaranteed.
