On July 7, 2020, the UBC Staff Pension Plan became a signatory to the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) through its investment manager, UBC Investment Management Trust Inc. (UBC IMANT). As a signatory, the SPP confirms its commitment to responsible investing and joins a global community seeking to build a more sustainable financial system.
The SPP Board has also established an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) committee in recognition of the importance of responsible investing. This is an area of priority for the SPP Board that is ongoing.
Learn more about how we are integrating ESG considerations into the Plan’s investments in the 2019 SPP Annual Report.
