Targeting long-term responsible investing goals
In partnership with, and on behalf of, our clients we target a broad range of ESG objectives. These include:
- Reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner across all assets under management
- Setting an interim target of 70% of eligible AUM to be managed in alignment with this net-zero ambition by 2030
- Achieving net-zero carbon across our real estate portfolio by 2050 [1]
LGIM, as at May 2024. For further information on our responsible investing goals, please visit our Active Ownership page
[1] For this first interim target, unveiled as part of the Net Zero Asset Manager initiative, LGIM has excluded Government securities and Derivative assets due to lack of clear industry methodologies to account for these asset classes to date.
Key risks
The value of an investment and any income taken from it is not guaranteed and can go down as well as up, you may not get back the amount you originally invested. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Whilst LGIM has integrated Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations into its investment decision-making and stewardship practices, this does not guarantee the achievement of responsible investing goals within funds that do not include specific ESG goals within their objectives.
The risks associated with each fund or investment strategy should be read and understood before making any investment decisions. Further information on the risks of investing in this fund is available in the prospectus at. http://www.lgim.com/fundcentre
