Carbon footprint

Carbon footprint

As allocators of capital and stewards of our clients’ assets, we recognise that the decisions we make as investors can influence the nature and speed of the transition to a low carbon global economy. 

We believe it is our responsibility to be a positive influence in this regard. Below we provide a combined footprint for all our equity portfolios.
