The information is needed by Goldman's own investment team, among others, said Catherine Winner, global head of stewardship at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, in an interview."We want this so we don't have to rely on third-party data, which is often wrong," she said.Goldman set for boardroom diversity in December. Last year Goldman said it voted against 7,661 directors worldwide, or about 15% of the time.
A U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rule unveiled Monday calls for more corporate emissions disclosures."We're not going to wait for the SEC rule to kick in," Winner said.
