STEWARDSHIP COUNCIL
Oversight for the ACT Framework comes in part from an expert, cross-industry Stewardship Council of investment management stakeholders, including fund gatekeepers.
The Stewardship Council is responsible for ensuring the ACT Standard is calibrated to achievable industry practice and for providing oversight of the evolution of the Framework’s maturity to drive firms progress and results over time. They also provide insight into their own practice and their expectations around transparency and accountability.
