A common criticism of passive investment in ESG is that, by nature of seeking to replicate an index, they can‘t actively engage with companies on ESG issues. But this isn’t the case.
It’s possible to achieve effective company engagement through an ETF by using an active ownership approach. Through proxy voting, we encourage the companies in which we invest to adopt best-in-class ESG practices, and our passive ETFs vote in line with the position taken by the largest Invesco active fund manager holding the same stocks.
