Learn more about the SRI Label
The SRI Label is a public label created under the aegis of the French Ministry of Finance. It is facilitated jointly by the AFG (French Asset Management Association), le FIR (French Sustainable Investment Forum) and the Directorate General of the Treasury. Awarded for a period of three years, it includes follow-up audits once a year.

The SRI Label was awarded after an audit covering six pillars:
• the general objectives of the funds;
• the methodology for analysing and rating ESG criteria (environmental, social, governance);
• their integration in the investment strategy of the funds;
• the ESG engagement and voting policy at General Assembly;
• transparent management;
• and the measurement of the ESG performance of the funds.


*As at 31 December 2021, Swiss Life Asset Managers France had assets under management of EUR 62.1 billion all expertises taken together.
