Investor Sign On Statements
Investor letters and sign-on statements are one of the tools through which the Investor Alliance and investors use their considerable leverage to advocate for corporate respect for human rights.
In coordination with civil society allies, the Investor Alliance publishes investor letters and statements to raise and/or respond to critical human rights concerns and as part of our legislative and regulatory advocacy.
The Investor Alliance actively works with investors and allies to identify strategic and urgent opportunities for investor action.
