TORONTO, April 24, 2017 /CNW/ - CI Investments Inc. ("CI") announced today that it has become an associate member of the Responsible Investment Association (RIA).

The RIA is a Canadian industry association that promotes the integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) into the selection and management of investments.

"As a signatory to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investing (UNPRI), CI is pleased to expand our responsible investment proficiency by joining the RIA as an Associate Member," said Neal Kerr, President, CI Institutional Asset Management and Executive Vice-President, Investment Management, CI Investments. "We are dedicated to achieving the best possible risk-adjusted returns for our investors and believe responsible investing can play a role in accomplishing that goal."

"We applaud their increased commitments to responsible investing, and we look forward to working with CI Investments to advance the incorporation of ESG criteria into Canadians' investment decisions."
