However, investors are concerned about the risks to long-term shareholder value associated with its climate strategy and alignment with the goals of the Paris Agreement, particularly in relation to transparency on short- and medium-term targets and investment plans, corporate governance and lobbying activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CAJ has engaged in constructive dialogue with a group of shareholders, including LGIM, ACCR, Amundi, Nordea Asset Management and Storebrand Asset Management. Ongoing discussions have focused on Nippon Steel\u2019s climate change strategy, disclosure and governance. However, the shareholder group concluded that our concerns had not been fully addressed and that improvements and progress had not been made within the expected timeframe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In light of this, we have put forward a joint shareholder proposal to Nippon Steel, suggesting ways in which they could enhance their decarbonisation strategy and protect the long-term interests of shareholders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12,"template":"","news_cat":[16],"class_list":["post-1650","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_cat-announcement"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Investor Seminar: Joint Shareholder Proposal to Nippon Steel | Corporate Action Japan<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/corporateactionjapan.org\/en\/news\/announcement\/investor-seminar-joint-shareholder-proposal-to-nippon-steel\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Investor Seminar: Joint Shareholder Proposal to Nippon Steel | Corporate Action Japan\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"An investor webinar was held to provide background information on the joint shareholder proposal submitted to Nippon Steel Corporation (hereafter \u201cNippon Steel\u201d) by Corporate Action Japan (CAJ), the Australian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (ACCR) and Legal &amp; General Investment Management (LGIM).
