pg. 5 "Investments The modern slavery risk assessment of our operations focused primarily on internally managed financial investments where Perpetual makes the investment decision. As an investment manager, we had $22.8 billion in funds under management at 30 June 2020 (excluding Trillium). Of our entire investment portfolio, some investments (representing well below 1% of the entire investment portfolio) pose a high inherent modern slavery risk because they are located in higher risk jurisdictions and/or industries (mining, construction materials, food retail, packaged foods and meat)." Singh Anjali[https://wikirate.org/Singh_Anjali].....2021-12-08 10:02:11 UTC I changed the answer to No because the above evidence does not show that the company screens prospect investees or undertakes a process that includes modern slavery considerations prior to investing.
