Launched in 2016, through our Climate Impact Pledge, we encourage companies to reduce climate change risks and transition to a net-zero economy.

Join Stephen Beer, Head of Responsible Investment Strategic Relationships, and ESG Analysts Anna Hirai and Cristy Rodriguez as they explain how the Pledge works, which sectors have scored well and which fell short, and what ‘engagement with consequences’ means.

You can listen on Apple Podcasts, Audioboom and Spotify.

For professional investors only. Capital at risk.

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.

All data sourced from LGIM's 2024 Climate Impact Pledge as at June 2024.
