Socially responsible investment

Home > Sustainability > Business > Socially Responsible Investment

Our investment is socially responsible (SRI), with a view to building a more sustainable world.

In 2017, we signed up to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), meaning that we are designing new investment products for our customers that satisfy these principles and comply with ESG criteria.

This course of action is compatible with our purpose and obligation to protect our customers’ savings and investments. In order to do this, we apply prudential criteria for investment and seek long-term value creation.

Integrating ESG aspects into investment processes

We made a series of public investment commitments aligned with our Sustainability Plan 2022-2024. Change is possible when we are all playing our part.

Our public commitments

We have strengthened and modified our commitments to actively contribute to the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Find out more about our investment commitments here.

We have incorporated the 2030 Agenda

In collaboration with the University of Siena (Italy), we have studied the impact of mutual fund portfolios on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The results of this research have already been applied to responsible mutual funds.

Responsible investment framework

We regularly review our responsible investment framework. Currently, around 90 percent of the assets in our portfolio have high or very high scores in terms of their ESG measurements.

Learn about the SRI product range.

Sustainable investment in infrastructure and renewables

We have signed strategic alliances for the launch of mutual funds in alternative assets such as renewable energies, real estate, and infrastructure, which take ESG criteria into account.

 

Our commitment to decarbonization

 

As part of our commitment to decarbonization, as members of the Net-Zero Asset Owners Alliance (NZAOA), and in order to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5⁰C, we have set ourselves intermediate targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions related to our investment portfolio to 2030, as part of our journey to making good on our commitment to being a net-zero emissions company by 2050.

These interim targets based on the Alliance’s Targeting Protocol imply a maximum warming of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, the most ambitious target defined in the Paris Agreement. You can learn more about our intermediate objectives down below.

Our socially responsible funds

 

MAPFRE AM is responsible for implementing the principles of socially responsible investing and has two specific funds:

Responsible Inclusion

We invest in companies committed to the inclusion of people with disabilities and combine the search for financial returns with promoting an improvement in society.

The fund has been included in the 2019 UN Global Compact report as an example of good practice.

Responsible capital

The objective of this fund is to favour those companies and entities that have a strategy focused on the monitoring of ESG criteria.
