"Currently our investment process considers risks to human rights through the aforementioned ESG considerations that have been incorporated into our investment process. As a quantitative manager, we use a range of data metrics to systematically apply investment ideas in a multi-factor framework. For example, within our bottom-up stock selection model, we evaluate labour standards, as these can be reflective of corporate quality particularly on more general social issues. We also implement short term risk controls specifically targeting ESG events. This includes social issues including forced and child labour.

In addition to the considerations already factored into our investment process, we use a range of available data sources to identify securities with potentially higher exposure to modern slavery. This information is used to monitor investment portfolio exposure to these securities and as a tool for corporate engagement. We actively discuss with management their procedures and processes around managing modern slavery related risks and their progress towards complying with the requirements of the Act."
