Hi!
A month ago Aya kindly circulated a link to this consultation from the DWP. The Taskforce for Social Factors (TSF) had just published its Guidance on how pension funds could consider social factors in their investment decisions and portfolios.
CFA UK are hoping to respond to the DWP by its deadline of 1st December. The response is being led by a working group from our Pensions Expert panel (PEP) and will be overseen our Professionalism Steering Committee (PSC).
This is an invitation to you to provide feedback on the TSF's Guidance. Feedback can cover any aspect of the Guidance and need not be exhaustive; it can be in bullet point form and does not have to be written up in formal prose; it can pertain to content, opinion or structure of the Guidance; it can be a comment on something that you feel is missing just as easily as something that is in it.
Any contribution will be considered by the working group and we will credit you in the list of contributors to our response, unless you prefer to remain anonymous. Assuming we do submit a response, this would be typically be posted to our website and promoted in LinkedIn. We will also share it in this community.
Any feedback would be gratefully received as soon as possible and by no later than Saturday 11th November to aburton@cfauk.org. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at that address on by mobile at 07415 952432.
Best Wishes,
