Board & governance
At Jupiter, we are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance.
Board Committee Terms of Reference
The Board has established three committees to assist in the management of the business. These are the Audit and Risk Committee, the Remuneration Committee and the Nomination Committee. The terms of reference are set out below.
We aim to invest in companies where we support their strategies, management teams and business models. As active owners, our investment teams focus on helping our clients achieve their long-term investment objective through thoughtful portfolio construction. Where ESG opportunities arise, we actively engage and exercise stewardship to monitor and support progress, whilst being cognisant of our responsibilities to escalate concerns that may arise.
As stewards of our client’s capital, we have a duty to manage assets in a responsible manner with reference to the integration of sustainability risks, making informed voting decisions and conducting effective engagement. Stewardship is a central pillar of our active management proposition and is centred on our ability to utilise our influence and rights to help companies maximise long-term sustained value creation to the benefit of our clients.
This is a dynamic area of investment linked to the heart of Jupiter’s purpose and societal contribution. It is a responsibility where demands have intensified as we contend with real-world complexities.
The exercise of rights and responsibilities through informed voting is fundamental to Jupiter’s active management and active ownership approach. Proxy voting is a representation of our clients’ interests and underpins both accountability and the alignment of interests between asset owners and beneficiaries. Voting serves as an intersection between companies and investors. Consequently, we have adopted an investment-led approach where judicious voting plays an important role in effective stewardship, the promotion of good governance and our efforts to maximise investor value.”
