On 5 December, the FIR published the white paper ‘Sustainable Finance & Disability’, the result of work carried out by a working group set up within the FIR with the support of the Victims’ Guarantee Fund and Malakoff Humanis on the issue of disability.
Given the difficulties faced by people with disabilities and their carers, the working group’s aim was to improve the criteria used to assess companies’ practices, products and services that promote the inclusion and independence of people with disabilities.
This white paper sets out a series of recommendations and proposed indicators to assist responsible investors in applying their selection criteria and engaging in dialogue with companies.
