An Analysis of Large U.S. and EMEA Manager Voting Policies
Navigate the complex landscape of proxy voting policies for ESG issues
ESG voting policies display notable differences between U.S. and European financial managers, particularly in climate-related disclosures and ESG proxy voting. While U.S. managers like BlackRock and Dimensional resist mandating Scope 3 disclosures, European and sustainability-focused managers adopt more progressive proxy voting approaches, supporting environmental and social issues.
In addition, neutral language in ESG proxy voting policies often leads U.S. managers to a conservative stance, causing them to reject proposals deemed too specific or redundant. This cautious approach, highlighted by the withdrawal of State Street and JPMorgan from the Climate Action 100+ initiative, underscores the contrast in proxy voting strategies between regions.
