2022 Global Corporate Credit ESG Engagement Report
2023 Global Corporate Credit ESG Engagement Report

In recent years, a variety of market-disrupting events have underscored the importance of active ownership and the analysis of financially material environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in fundamental credit research and investment decision-making. In our view, asset managers who leverage their relationships with issuers are best positioned to manage these ESG risks and take advantage of ESG opportunities. As highlighted in our prior engagement reports, Neuberger Berman views direct issuer engagement as a critical tool to mitigate portfolio risks while generating long-term sustainable returns.
