Sustainable Growth & Reducing Climate Impact
Climate change poses a systemic risk to the global economy, representing not only a strategic and business challenge for all companies and investors, but also a significant opportunity for those that align their businesses, operations and portfolios on a pathway to decarbonization.
Significantly scaling back emissions by mid-century requires businesses to develop sustainable business lines, adapt to new regulations, build stronger stakeholder relationships and improve resource efficiency and cost savings along the way. We take a broad view of climate-related risks and strive to embed sustainability into our investment decisions and portfolio management approach. Recognizing that the global transition to low carbon, climateresilient pathways will require change and collaboration across industries, geographies and communities, we aim to do our part to accelerate this transition, consistent with the goals of the Paris Agreement. We have grounded our approach to sustainable growth and reducing climate impact in areas where we believe we can have meaningful, measurable impact.
