In a year marked by systemic challenges—from climate change to social inequality, biodiversity loss, and health crises—asset managers play a pivotal role in fostering positive transformation. This roundtable uncovered thematic engagements and their crucial role in steering responsible stewardship.

The roundtable discussion brought together a diverse group of practitioners and stewardship experts to discuss top-of-mind challenges and best practices for stewardship. BlackRock, Columbia Threadneedle Investments, Impax, CCLA and UBS were among the leading organisations in attendance.

Investment professionals and consultants joined the roundtable to explore voting policies, emerging thematic engagements, and efficient stewardship practices. UBP, ShareAction, Schroders and Close Brothers Group were among the leading organisations in attendance.
