EFA, a leading Assets Servicing company in Luxembourg, is proud to announce that  it has signed the United Nations-supported Principles for Responsible Investment. 

The Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) are widely recognised as the leading global  framework for encouraging positive environmental, social and governance practices in  investment strategies. For EFA, becoming a signatory to the PRI is a natural step after  joining the UN Global Compact, in which signatories commit to aligning their operations and  strategies with ten principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti 

corruption. 

Since its foundation, EFA takes ESG matters very seriously and has been rewarded the  Gold level by the independent Ecovadis label since 2018. This allows Asset Managers with  Sustainable investment strategies to keep a high-level of ESG along all the value chain of  their funds.  

With this signature, EFA tells its clients, partners and suppliers that it commits to make a positive impact in this world. 

Noel Fessey, EFA CEO said, " We believe that what we do today – individually and  collectively – shapes our world's future. We believe that we have a responsibility to help  shape a better, sustainable future. With this signature, we declare that the EFA supports  those in the fund industry who want to make a difference. " 

Fiona Reynolds, PRI CEO, commented: " Service providers such as EFA play a pivotal role  in strengthening the integration of ESG across the investment chain. We’re very pleased to  welcome EFA as a signatory to the PRI, and applaud their commitment to adhere to our  principles in supporting institutional investor clients in Luxembourg and beyond. We look  forward to working with the team.
