Climate change: Inaction is not an option
Seeking to deliver an active approach to engagement and investing.
Our latest Climate Solutions whitepaper makes the case that the greatest climate impact – and potentially also some of the greatest returns – can be sought by investing in those companies with high emissions or whose products have the greatest impact on other companies’ emissions.
Central to this approach is pro-active and profound company engagement; we believe in encouraging the companies to pull the levers necessary to target improved aggregate climate outcomes. The goal is to allocate more capital to drive the business opportunities the transition creates, while simultaneously driving down emissions over time.

Key risks
The value of any investment and any income taken from it is not guaranteed and can go down as well as up, and investors may get back less than the amount originally invested.
Whilst we have incorporated ESG information into investment decision making and stewardship practices, there can be no assurance that any responsible investing goals will be met.
