• Engage with 100% of companies that are not disclosing adequately or that do not have targets.
• We will also engage with high-emitting companies where we believe they could be reducing emissions more quickly.
• 100% net zero financed and operational emissions by 2050

GHG scopes included:

Our targets are related to scope 1 & 2 emissions, we will consider the inclusion of investee companies’ scope 3 emissions when reviewing targets.

Methodology:

Net Zero Investment Framework

Own/other methodology

Scenario(s):

Our internal pathway is to reduce emissions as quickly as possible. Our targets are not derived from any top-down models as they don’t align with how we invest and are looking to decarbonise at a faster rate than the IPCC or IEA pathways.
