This year Golding was again rated by the investor initiative UN Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI) as part of its recently published assessment report. Golding received the top rating of 5 stars in all the asset classes private equity, private credit (fixed income) and infrastructure. In the category Investment & Stewardship Policy Golding was given 4 stars.

In previous years PRI has defined its rating by reference to the grades A to E, but for the first time in 2021/2022 the investor initiative gave a number of stars, accompanied by points on a scale from 1 to 100. Golding achieved 97 points in all three asset classes, whereby the median for private equity was 63, for private credit (fixed income) 57 points and for infrastructure 71 points. In the category Investment & Stewardship Policy Golding was given 4 stars and scored 89 points (median: 60 points).
