📢 The CWC is pleased to share its latest report, Labour Rights Stewardship: How Asset Managers Measured Up in 2024. Recognizing the significant influence that global asset managers wield on ESG practices at investee companies, this report analyzes how ten of the world's largest asset managers undertook investment stewardship on labour rights in 2024. The report finds that the largest global asset managers, all US-headquartered, showed low support for 2024 shareholder resolutions promoting freedom of association and collective bargaining compared to their non-US headquartered peers. On the engagement front, only half of the asset managers analyzed disclosed company engagements and topics. The report also analyzes the newer trend of split stewardship, where a given asset manager may engage with the same companies according to a different set of values, and finds that this heightens the risks of sending mixed signals to portfolio companies and may decrease the clout of “impact” relative to “financial” materiality-focused ESG from key managers. The report is a practical tool for asset owners seeking to understand how their asset managers vote and engage on labour rights issues. https://lnkd.in/ezfStPjW

Levels and composition in executive compensation is a clear responsibility of the Board of Directors. The conference will focus on Board of Directors remuneration as well as C-suite members. Activist shareholders and institutional investors are playing a more active role in influencing executive compensation policies, regarding the level as well as components – the split between Short Term Incentives (STI), Long Term Incentives (LTI) and Fixed base salary. Recently ESG KPI' s have found their way into executive compensation. However, mandatory sustainability KPI’s were taken out of the CSDDD, when voted for in the EU. Should board pay be increased as more time is spent in the boardroom with more demanding tasks due to impacts of disruptive times, the need for international recruitments, more meetings held per year, inflation? Meet Jorgen Buhl Rasmussen Chairperson, Lene Skole CEO and Chairperson, Martin Faarborg Partner, Ken Bechmann Professor and Bente Overgaard CEO.

It’s true — following the Supreme Court’s ruling against affirmative action, organizations may be less likely to have #DEI goals embedded in their executive compensation plans. I’m still optimistic we will see continuing progress. As I shared with WorldatWork, “the focus on DEI will continue to be strong and progress will continue to be made… not because all believe DEI represents a competitive advantage, although many do, but because investors are increasingly demanding data on equity achievement… and the brand risk associated with not disclosing [at all], or not disclosing favorable numbers, is a driver of executive focus.” The Supreme Court decision has underscored the importance of #payequity and #careerequity as the means to achieve diversity goals. Equity is required under long established law, and a proactive focus on equity will help ensure companies can attract and retain diverse talent. Our work has proven this to be the case. For more on this issue, see the complete article: https://lnkd.in/e3eJcvAB

Julia Cedarholm, ESG Research and Shareholder Engagement Senior Associate at Arjuna Capital, has been a pioneer in the pay equity movement for almost a decade. Despite ongoing challenges in this space, Arjuna Capital sees promising signs for a more equitable future for employees. A growing investor interest in the topic is prompting more companies, both large and small, to voluntarily share pay equity analyses. This increase in transparency and accountability has been instrumental in identifying and addressing pay gaps and the hope is that such disclosure can become a standard best practice for all organizations. While the outlook is promising, Julia acknowledges there is much work to be done. To learn more about where S&P 100 companies currently stand with their pay gap practices and how Julia’s firm plans to hold companies to account, check out our latest IN-DEPTH article. #InDepth #ShareholderEngagement #ESG #PayEquity
