RIL governance

Two specialist committees - the Investment Committee and the Ethics Committee - monitor the managers and the asset allocations for each Fund, maintain the Funds' sustainability integrity, and oversee the overall operation of the Responsible Investment Leaders product range.

The Investment Committee is responsible for investment decision-making and financial performance, and performs four key tasks:

1. determining the long term investment strategies of the Funds
2. identifying the manager universe
3. manager selection
4. strategic asset allocation

The Investment Committee includes investment professionals from within AMP Capital and representatives from Mercer Investment Consulting and Edwards Benefits Advisors.

The Ethics Committee is responsible for sustainability integrity and corporate governance and engagement, and performs two key tasks:

• overseeing the Funds' investments to ensure they reflect the Funds' sustainability objectives
• providing input on matters of priority for corporate engagement and governance, where environmental, social or ethical issues, or labour standards are relevant

The Ethics Committee is comprised of sustainability research and investment personnel from within AMP Capital, and client representatives.
