Our approach to investment stewardship | Capital Group

22 May 2025

At Capital Group, successful investing means generating superior long-term investment results for our clients. This is made possible through our focus on engagement with the companies and issuers in which we invest. This iteration of our stewardship report demonstrates our continued commitment to investment stewardship and environmental, social and governance (ESG) integration.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In 2024, we recorded more than 1,250 unique ESG engagements with companies and issuers across the Americas, Asia-Pacific and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
We voted at more than 2,100 annual, extraordinary and special general meetings on behalf of clients in 2024.

Past results are not predictive of results in future periods. It is not possible to invest directly in an index, which is unmanaged. The value of investments and income from them can go down as well as up and you may lose some or all of your initial investment.

Statements attributed to an individual represent the opinions of that individual as of the date published and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Capital Group or its affiliates. All information is as at the date indicated unless otherwise stated. Some information may have been obtained from third parties, and as such the reliability of that information is not guaranteed.

Capital Group manages equity assets through three investment groups. These groups make investment and proxy voting decisions independently. Fixed income investment professionals provide fixed income research and investment management across the Capital organisation; however, for securities with equity characteristics, they act solely on behalf of one of the three equity investment groups.
