The UN Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI) are a set of core principles developed in 2005-6 in conjunction with international institutional investors, to reflect the increasing relevance of environmental, social and corporate governance issues to investment practices.

OWW Consulting was the first signatory to the UNPRI in Malaysia and Singapore and we are an active participant in PRI activities, especially in emerging markets in Asia. In January 2009 OWW Consulting was a supporter and panel member at PRI stakeholder events at the Indonesian Stock Exchange, the Stock Exchange of Thailand, Singapore Exchange and Khazanah Nasional, Malaysia’s sovereign wealth fund as well as other stakeholder events. We attend regular PRI events and are also involved in various engagement programmes including the Sudan Engagement Programme and a collaborative call for increasing ESG research in Asia.

Experience Statements

"
I attended a conference in Kuala Lumpur organised by OWW Consulting, the theme of which was "responsible recovery from the global crisis... the conference also contained some striking presentations that set the debate about recovery in a different context ... This was a different kind of business conference. The poor were discussed, a lot. The role of faith-based finance dominated an entire session. The environmental crisis was never far from the discussion. This is a serious and pressing agenda for managers. It is important stuff.
