The Remuneration Policy of AAIS is based on ABN AMRO Bank N.V. Its purpose is to specify the necessary and mandatory prerequisites, as well as the principles applicable to performance and remuneration management, defined by the ABN AMRO Bank in accordance with the various applicable regulations, namely UCITS 5, AIMFD and SFDR for AAIS.
The remuneration policy takes into account internal factors such as the organisation, objectives, values and long-term interests of AAIS in order to ensure a sustainable and responsible policy, in line with ABN AMRO Bank’s objectives in terms of sustainability, social commitment and the products and services provided to our customers. The performance objectives of all ABN AMRO employees must also be in line with ABN AMRO Bank’s overall strategy, risk profile, values and long-term interests.

Our Annual Stewardship Report recaps our company engagement and voting activities for the year.
Under Article 4 of the SFDR, ABN AMRO Investment Solutions, in its capacity of subsidiary of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and with a total number of employees of less than 500, is not obliged to publish a Principal Adverse Impacts Statement.
We feel it is important to publish a Principal Adverse Impact Statement as we believe adverse sustainability impacts deserve as much attention as Sustainability risk. Adverse sustainability impacts are actual and potential negative impacts resulting from investments or investment advice on sustainability factors, i.e. environmental, social and employee matters, respect for human rights, and anti-corruption and anti-bribery matters. Identifying and measuring these impacts is important in order to assess whether a product is indeed a sustainable product. ABN AMRO Investment Solutions is currently working on fund level reporting that shows not only the Sustainability Risk a fund is subject to, but also the adverse sustainability indicators per fund. Currently, we already measure a number of the indicators defined by the Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) but we do not yet report on them externally (for instance: Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Carbon Footprints). Next to that, some of the proposed indicators are on our exclusion list, such as UN Global Compact violations and exposure to Controversial Weapons.

We are committed to being transparent about the sustainability performance of the funds we manage. We have dedicated reports in place for this purpose and aim to add more disclosures over time. Historical reports can be found under ‘Sustainable Regulatory Information’ section on this webpage.
