Clarification of FT article about Volkswagen

Financial Times has today 8 November published an article stating that Nordea Asset Management has confirmed a lawsuit against Volkswagen. That is not correct. No decision has been made to pursue with a lawsuit at this point. 

Sasja Beslik, head of Responsible Investments at Nordea Asset Management, has said that Nordea Asset Management is reviewing our options and is not ruling out legal action. As responsible investors we have obligation to protect interests of our beneficiaries (clients) and take measures that correspond with that responsibility.
