Helaba Invest signs PRI principles

Helaba Invest Kapitalanlagegesellschaft mbH has signed up to international Principles for Responsible Investment, or PRI.

“By signing the Principles, we are making a clear commit­ment to aligning Helaba Invest towards a sustainable business strategy”, says Uwe Traut­mann, chairman of the Management Board of Helaba Invest. “This is an expression of our duty to act in a responsible way, which we have already practised for a long time.” In the scope of PRI, signatory banks agree to include ecological, social and corporate gover­nance factors, among others, in their investment and decision-making processes. In future, Helaba Invest will increasingly apply these aspects to its invest­ment approaches and products.

Hans-Dieter Kemler, the chairman of Helaba Invest’s supervisory board and a member of Helaba’s Board of Managing Directors, adds: “Helaba Invest’s signing of the PRI principles under­lines the Helaba Group’s sustain­able business strategy and affirms the success of our project, spanning all business units, to improve the Group’s sustainability profile.”

PRI is an initiative by investors, supported by the United Nations (UN), that aims to contri­bute towards creating a more sustain­able global financial system. Signing up to PRI indicates a company’s recognition and implemen­tation of the Principles in its day-to-day operations.

„By signing the Principles, we are making a clear commit­ment to aligning Helaba Invest towards a sustain­able business strategy. This is an expression of our duty to act in a respon­sible way, which we have already practised for a long time“
