Social Initiative
Amundi believes that investing in the Social and Solidarity Economy today will be a source of profitability tomorrow.
The social impact investing expertise is based on three commitments:
Integrating the social pillar into your investments
In line with our commitment to supporting sustainable investment across all asset classes, Amundi has developed a range of social investment strategies. These date back to 2013 with the launch of the Finance and Solidarity strategy and later a dedicated social bond strategy supporting the expansion of this nascent market.
Amundi is committed to spearheading the development of the social agenda globally, through sophisticated integration of social issues across all main asset classes: fixed income, equity, and non-listed assets.
