The world needs to reduce carbon emissions by approximately 1.7 billion tons each year to achieve net zero by 20501. The global transition to a net zero economy is accelerating, with dramatic implications for investors, including pension scheme trustees.
Five years ago, adding an environmental, social and governance (ESG) tilt to your investment portfolio was seen as a nice-to-have. Today, there is a recognition that if you don’t consider this, it will impact performance. This has added pressure to time-pressed pension trustees to consider the potential effect of climate change on their scheme’s investments.
The pensions landscape is constantly changing and trustees are facing increased ESG demands from their stakeholders as well as new regulations. We want our clients to be ahead of the game and so are taking steps to help investors prepare their portfolios for a net zero world.
We are committed to providing trustees with the solutions, tools and the data to navigate the transition and to help them achieve the outcomes they seek on this journey to a greener future.
