The Calvert Principles for Responsible Investment

We combine deep industry experience, a principled approach, global reach and active corporate engagement to help meet our clients' needs and goals.
40+ years history of leadership and innovation in Responsible investing
Built on the Calvert Principles for Responsible investment, which bridge global norms for responsible business with the needs of return-seeking investors
Calvert's focus on Responsible investing is at the heart of what we do
Strategies that span global capital markets including proprietary responsible indexes, quantitative equities, fundamental equity and fixed income, and customized solutions
Our Corporate Engagement Strategists influence companies toward greater sustainability and corporate governance
Specialized research analysts use differentiated data to evaluate financially material ESG factors to measure impact and identify catalysts for positive change
By combining our proprietary research models with a structured corporate engagement framework, we work toward building sustainable long-term value in both the companies we invest in and our clients’ portfolios.
Identifying how financially material ESG factors influence company performance is integral to Calvert's research process. The process ensures that our strategies invest in companies that manage their material ESG factors well while avoiding companies exposed to excessive ESG risk.
Refine classifications into custom peer groups based on shared, financially material ESG risks.
Develop a thesis to identify current and emerging ESG risks and opportunities over our investment horizon.
Evaluate performance on financially material ESG issues using select key performance indicators (KPIs).
Determine overall ESG decision for each issuer based on analysis of three material exposures: company level, industry level and execution level.
Robust governance ensures the oversight of investment theses updates, continuous maintenance of models and investment decision changes.
Calvert has a long history of collaborating with companies to encourage them to improve corporate behaviors and contribute to a more sustainable and equitable society.
Through ongoing discussions with management or boards, we raise concerns and reach agreements to improve a company's ESG policies.
We use proxy voting to register support or concern about corporate governance, management, social or environmental issues.
When engagement has not made progress, we can add a question to the company’s ballot on an ESG topic for a vote of all shareholders, demonstrating broad-based investor concern about the issue.
Calvert seeks opportunities to collaborate with government and regulatory agencies, NGOs and influential public policy groups to educate and inform on the importance of responsible investing and ESG factors in legislative and societal frameworks.
Calvert may use coalitions and partners to further amplify our voice and work for positive change in key issue areas.
