UK Stewardship Code

The UK Stewardship Code is a set of best practices encouraging institutional investors, like pension funds and asset managers, to actively oversee and engage with the companies they invest in. Its goal is to promote responsible management, sustainability, and long-term value creation. By adhering to the code, investors are expected to monitor companies regularly, ask questions, and support good governance. This helps ensure that companies are managed ethically and effectively, ultimately benefiting all stakeholders including shareholders, employees, and the wider community.
