Modern slavery statement
Modern slavery is a significant and complex global issue impacting some of the most vulnerable people in society. Identifying and addressing modern slavery risks is an obligation we take seriously.
Stewardship
We believe that the stewardship activities of institutional investors can positively influence corporate behaviour and contribute to long-term shareholder value.
UniSuper is a signatory to the Australian Asset Owner Stewardship Code (the Code). We support the principles outlined in the Code, which focus on enhancing the quality and transparency of Australian asset owners' disclosures regarding their company engagement and voting practices.
Sustainable and environmental investing
Within the range of investment options available to our members we offer three sustainable and environmental branded options. These allow you to limit your exposure to certain industries and/or to invest in companies selected on the basis of environmental considerations.1 See the How we invest your money document for further information.
We periodically review the investments in our sustainable and environmental branded options to determine the proportion of each option which has ‘positive attributes’. This information is now included in the 2024 Responsible investment report (pages 27-29).
