With more than 19 years experience in socially responsible investment and engagement, Jupiter firmly believes that good governance is an important issue for all shareholders. This is more than just a question of a company's accountability to its owners; there is evidence to suggest that companies which are conscientiously managed can enhance shareholder value in the long run.
In our view, shareholders have a vital role to play in encouraging a higher level of corporate performance by adopting a positive approach to corporate governance and engagement with companies. We believe that in the many years we have been actively engaging with companies, we have both protected and enhanced shareholder value. Key to this has been the combination of constructive dialogue and the considered use of our shareholder voting rights which we regard as the bedrock of governance and part of our fiduciary duty towards our clients.
