CII Principles (Council of Institutional Investors)

The CII Principles are guidelines set by the Council of Institutional Investors to promote responsible and ethical investing. They emphasize the importance of transparency, accountability, and good governance by companies. The principles encourage investors to support practices that protect shareholders' interests, foster sustainable growth, and ensure companies operate fairly and responsibly. Essentially, they serve as a standard for how institutional investors, like pension funds and mutual funds, should engage with companies to promote long-term value and trust.
