Sustainable development
In 2018, the Caisse held an initial consultation with its members to determine its investment priorities. Following this consultation, sustainable development was one of the niches selected and presented to members at the Annual General Meeting in 2019.
Considering that the Caisse wanted to be a pioneer in this field, and that we knew it was of essential to our members, the Board of Directors opted for this chief cause.
The Caisse has since set up a committee of employees whose mission is to act as ambassadors for sustainable development, helping to implement actions and change the habits of employees, administrators, and members for a greener Caisse.
Several actions have been carried out:
- Sustainable development policy and action plan
- Training for all responsible investment advisors
- Stop single-use purchases
- Paperless Caisse and electronic signature
- Eco-responsible purchasing and events
- Conferences and workshops related to sustainable development.
- Beehives
- Electric terminals
