Independent and diverse: the PRIME VALUES Ethics Committee.
The independent Ethics Committee decides on the ethical profile of every investment whether a publicly traded equity, corporate or government bond.
The committee is made up of renowned experts from various fields. It monitors compliance with the defined ethical criteria on behalf of all investors. In particular, the values recognised in German-speaking countries regarding the treatment of people, animals and nature are taken into account.
