July - Annual Member Survey 2025
The Pension Fund would like to engage with its members to find out their views on:
- Responsible investment and
- The Fund’s approach to responsible investment
This will allow the Fund to better understand the views of Scheme members on issues such as climate change. The feedback will then be taken into account when the Fund conducts its annual review of the Fund’s Responsible Investment Policy, later in the year. It will also allow the Fund to establish the best way to communicate with its members on the progress the Fund is making with regards to responsible investment.
We have now published our fifth annual survey. If you would like to take part in the short survey, please use the link below:
