Investment tools
The PRI produces a range of tools and guidance to inform investors how to incorporate ESG considerations into investment decisions and ownership practices in a systematic way, within each asset class.
Getting started
Definitions for responsible investment approaches
Investors benefit from common definitions that enable them to describe their responsible investment practices precisely and consistently. The PRI has collaborated with the CFA Institute and the Global Sustainable Investment Alliance (GSIA) to refine and harmonise terminology.
Introductory guides to responsible investment
Explore the PRI's range of starter guides for those new to responsible investment.
PRI reporting data analysis
