HOW WE WORK WITH YOU
We provide investors with the evidence to inspire action and the tools necessary to do so. We do this through our signature benchmark reports that highlight targets for investors and supplemental investor materials with concrete steps investors can take to engage with companies on the issue of forced labor.
Sign up to our quarterly investor newsletter to learn about the latest news, tools, and investor engagements addressing forced labor.
The KnowTheChain Investor Statement is signed by more than 160 investors with US$6.1 trillion assets under management and can be used as a tool for engagement with companies. The Investor Alliance for Human Rights and KnowTheChain invite investors to sign the statement to demonstrate commitment to addressing forced labor.
Learn more about our support for investor engagement here. Details on the investor engagement with apparel companies on forced labor, led by the Interfaith Centre for Corporate Responsibility and supported by Principles for Responsible Investment and KnowTheChain, can be found here.
