Our research is the foundation of our work. We produce evidence-based research on material sustainability issues, providing our members with detailed insights.

ACSI research informs our company engagement, supports our advocacy work and underpins voting advice to members.

Engage

ACSI engages on behalf of our members on sustainability issues to influence companies and financial markets in the interest of long-term investors.

Our engagement with listed companies aims to positively influence their ESG performance, ultimately, delivering value to superannuation beneficiaries.

Influence

ACSI engages with government, regulators and policymakers to promote regulatory and financial systems that are equitable, sustainable and effective for long-term investors.

Our priorities

On behalf of our members, ACSI engages with ASX listed companies on a range of issues. 

employees

Board diversity

Lack of diversity can be a financially material risk that can have a negative effect on the long-term performance of a company. We focus on companies with poor board diversity to boost gender and other kinds of diversity.

Corporate governance

Governance issues can be financially material. We directly engage with the ASX-listed companies to promote strong governance practices.

Climate change

We focus on how companies are managing climate-risk and the transition to a low-carbon economy, encouraging adoption of more sustainable long-term business models. 

Corporate culture

We advocate to improve culture across corporate Australia, due to its important role in driving company performance and good outcomes for employees, customers and stakeholders. 

Workforce issues

We focus on social issues with a material financial risk, such as workplace safety or addressing modern slavery in supply chains.

“Managing ESG issues helps protect the retirement savings of superfund members into the future. Investors and companies must work together to tackle significant long-term investment risks, including climate change, corporate governance, and gender diversity.”
