Investec Response

Some of the deals mentioned in this report are more than 10 years old. We believe that the commitment as a banking sector to adhering to ESG principles in general has been greatly improved over the past decade. Furthermore, there is a sector commitment through both the Bankers Association of South Africa and from the natural resources sector to follow international best practice over and above what is legally required in ESG lending and investing activities.
