Our Commitment to Trustworthy Stewardship
At Minerva , we believe stewardship is more than a compliance requirement — it’s a cornerstone of responsible capitalism. Our role as a proxy advisor is not just to deliver voting research and recommendations, but to ensure they are objective, accurate, and fully aligned with our clients’ values and fiduciary responsibilities.
Minerva is proud to meet and exceed the expectations of leading regulatory and best practice frameworks, including:
As a signatory, we embed the Code’s principles into our operations — from the customisation of client voting policies, to the rigour of our research, and the transparency of our voting rationales. We support asset owners and managers in demonstrating their own alignment through auditable, evidence-based stewardship processes.
We publicly disclose our methodologies, conflicts management, and client alignment in line with the Directive’s aim to strengthen shareholder engagement and improve long-term corporate governance across the EU.
We are a founding signatory of the BPPG and commit to its principles of service quality, transparency, and conflict management. Our independent oversight process ensures continuous improvement and external accountability.
Our membership in the NZFSPA reflects our support for net zero-aligned financial ecosystems. While we remain research-driven and policy-neutral, we equip clients with the tools they need to implement credible transition strategies within their own mandates.
We recognise that regulatory compliance is essential — but not sufficient. What sets Minerva apart is our deep commitment to transparency, objectivity, and partnership. Every vote matters. Every rationale is documented. Every client policy is respected.
When you work with Minerva, you’re not buying data, you’re investing in a relationship built on independence, professionalism, and trust.
