Vontobel has further improved on its score for the ‘Principles for Responsible Investment’ (PRI) – a United Nations initiative – this year after already achieving an above-average score for its sustainable investment strategies in 2018. In the 2019 reporting, Vontobel outperformed the benchmark for all seven of the modules that were assessed (2018: six out of seven modules were above benchmark). Vontobel has been a signatory to the PRI since 2010. The UN initiative has almost 2,500 signatories globally, primarily comprising companies from the financial world.
