Supplementary notes

The source adds further comments: "Due to European diversity, the wide definition of responsible investment is any type of investment process that combines investors’ financial objectives with their concerns about Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues. Norms-based screening is a strategy that involves assessing each company held in the investment portfolio against specific standards of Environmental, Social and Governance performance. These standards are based on international norms set by organisations or institutions such as the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Corporations and International Treaties."
