Newsletter Eurosif, juillet 2007

Eurosif, juillet 2007 - La newsletter d'Eurosif est disponible sur le site en cliquant sur le lien suivant. Que retenir de cette newsletter ? Loin d'être exhaustif, deux points semblent retenir l'attention :

• L'envoi d'une lettre d'Eurosif à la SEC à propos de la réforme de l'article 14a-8 sur les résolutions d'actionnaires : Eurosif expressed concern that any proposed changes would have negative effects on shareholder advocacy and urged the SEC not to weaken shareholders’ rights to file resolutions by crafting any amendment that would make it substantially more difficult for investors to sponsor reasonable resolutions.
• Les statistiques positives de l'investissement socialement responsable : ABP and PGGM, the largest pension funds in the Netherlands, say they expect to see real returns on investments in sustainability and social causes. They have both increased their stake in Dutch bank Triodos to over 5%, as part of the bank’s recent release of over one million new shares. The bank currently finances companies and projects in organic farming, sustainable energy, healthcare, microfinance, culture and fair trade.
