Federated Hermes EOS regularly reports to PensionDanmark on listed companies with rep-rehensive behavior. In addition, we receive inputs from Sustainanalytics, MSCI and other suppliers about both listed and private companies. For the listed companies, Pen-sionDanmark and Federated Hermes EOS tries to establish a dialogue in order to influence the companies and change their behavior.
PensionDanmark evaluates companies individually based on their business model and their approach to, for example, climate change, the environment, human rights, and working conditions. On this basis, PensionDanmark assesses and determines which companies will be excluded from PensionDanmark's investment universe.

Furthermore, PensionDanmark does not invest in tobacco producers. PensionDanmark also excludes (thermal) coal production from the investment universe, partly because of economic reasons as this is considered an obsolete technology for producing energy.
PensionDanmark is unwilling to buy corporate bonds issued by companies that are ex-cluded from the list above. The same goes for any private company that is involved in the production of chemical weapons, anti-personel mines or cluster munitions and tobacco or companies with significant involvement in production of (thermal) coal or oil sands.
