Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Sovereign Wealth Funds: Discussion

Mr. Nick Ashmore:

It has come up in terms of our activities within ESG. Within our global portfolio where we are dealing with listed companies around the world, which is where these investments are located, we work with a third party called Federated Hermes EOS. It engages on behalf of multiple investors in active engagement with companies around ESG matters, and that includes the matter of human rights.
