ESG-integration and exclusion policy

Robeco is currently striving for a broader integration of environmental, social and governance criteria in its investment analysis and decision making processes. We expect ESG integration will improve risk/return, it leads to more comprehensive company assessments, improves our company risk assessment, and results in earlier discovery of business opportunities. Reporting on ESG integration will become an integral part of each Robeco product information package.
Next to ESG integration, a general exclusion policy has become effective in 2010.
