Angela Emslie, current HESTA chair, has been named as a candidate for the asset owner position.
In her candidate statement, Ms Emslie said: “I firmly believe in the role the PRI plays in not only raising awareness and promoting the benefits of long-term responsible investing, but also in leading change in the asset owner, manager and broader investment community.”
Ms Emslie stated her experience as the president of the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST) as a key attribute.
