Each company has its own journey to enhance its ESG practices. At NAOS we continually seek to find areas to improve.
In line with the United Nations Principles of Responsible Investment, NAOS commits to:
The Sustainable Development Goals are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and improve the lives and prospects of everyone, everywhere. The 17 Goals were adopted by all UN Member States in 2015, as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which set out a 15-year plan to achieve the Goals.
