Aegon Asset Management renews UK Stewardship Code Signatory Status

Aegon Asset Management is pleased to announce the renewal of its signatory status to the UK Stewardship Code by the Financial Reporting Council. 

Our commitment to the UK Stewardship Code spans over a decade, having been signatories since its inception in 2012. When the code underwent a substantial revision in 2020, raising the bar for stewardship practices, we proudly met those enhanced standards and have maintained our signatory status since. 

 

Miranda Beacham, Head of UK Responsible Investment, said:

"Our long-standing adherence to the UK Stewardship Code, from its original form through to its more rigorous 2020 revision, demonstrates our unwavering commitment to responsible investment. We continue to meet and exceed these elevated expectations in our stewardship practices.”

 

A copy of Aegon Asset Management’s Compliance Statement for the UK Stewardship Code is available here.

 

Responsible Investment has been core to Aegon Asset Management's business model for over three decades. Our ongoing dedication is evident through our active involvement in initiatives like the Net Zero Asset Managers Initiative and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures.


The UK Stewardship Code sets high standards for responsible allocation and management of capital. By adhering to these principles, we continue to create long-term value for clients, beneficiaries, the economy, and society.
