Sustainability
Tesla is one of our long-term engagements
In our work to engage with companies as shareholders, Tesla is a one of them. It is an interesting and challenging company from an ESG engagement perspective and some of the issues we have raised with Tesla range from labour rights, to the size of Tesla CEOs pay package.
