Closed door session for IIC organised by Securities Commission Malaysia and PRI

This session is aimed to provide member representatives of the IIC the opportunity to further their knowledge of the PRI, responsible investment practices and trends, and also to better understand the alignment between the activities of the IIC, the wider SRI initiatives being undertaken by the Securities Commission and the mission and goals of the PRI.

This closed-door session will also aim to provide a private opportunity for the open discussion of these issues and allow for attendees to ask questions directly to the PRI Chair and a range of PRI representatives.
