“In the same way responsible investors must consider the environmental and social impacts of their portfolios, so must financial institutions scrutinize their investments to ensure they are not causing or contributing to adverse human rights impacts,” said Nadira Narine, ICCR’s senior program director who coordinates ICCR’s work on immigration. “If a company cannot execute the enhanced human rights due diligence necessary to vouchsafe that these relationships don’t present risks, then they must extricate themselves from these investments. We are gratified to see JPMC do just that.”
