The results of a special audit of the Volkswagen plant in the Chinese region of Xinjiang have tipped the scale: Union Investment, the fund company, continues to categorize VW shares as „investable“ for sustainable investments. „The publication of the audit is a step in the right direction,“ says Henrik Pontzen, Head of Sustainability in Portfolio Management at Union Investment, to Table.Media.
