UOB fuses ESG concerns into investment solutions

It has built a framework to ensure partners' commitment to ESG risks.

UOB has integrated ESG considerations into its full suite of investment solutions, including unit trusts, bonds and structured products, a statement read.

The bank has built a structured due diligence framework for the selection of solution providers to ensure that partners show commitment to addressing ESG risks and opportunities.

Solution providers must have operationalised policies and processes in place and adopt or align to globally-recognised standards from the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and CDP.

UOB is offering products such as UOB Asset Management’s United Sustainable Credit Income Fund and the Allianz Global Sustainability Fund, as well as green bonds selected from the constituents of the Bloomberg MSCI Green Bond Index.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
