Active Shareholder Investing

Active-shareholder funds use equity stakes to file shareholder resolutions, influence board composition, and push company management on climate strategy and governance. Vehicles like Engine No. 1’s VOTE ETF have demonstrated this approach at scale — most notably influencing ExxonMobil’s board composition in 2021. Self-directed investors can access this strategy through ETF allocation, without needing to own shares directly or engage management themselves.
