Description

Description An international group of 29 institutional investors (as of 3rd August 2020) delivering on a bold commitment to transition our investment portfolios to net-zero GHG emissions by 2050.
Objectives The members of the Alliance commit to transitioning their investment portfolios to net-zero GHG emissions by 2050 consistent with a maximum temperature rise of 1.5°C above pre-industrial temperatures, taking into account the best available scientific knowledge including the findings of the IPCC, and regularly reporting on progress, including establishing intermediate targets every five years in line with Paris Agreement Article 4.9.
Activities Members will seek to reach this Commitment, especially through advocating for, and engaging on, corporate and industry action, as well as public policies, for a low-carbon transition of economic sectors in line with science and under consideration of associated social impacts.

Indicators
Goals The UN-convened Alliance will utilise state-of-the-art tools and align with

various initiatives led by AOs who have demonstrated leadership on the topic of decarbonisation. In more detail, potential actions would emphasize: ◾ Investor ambition and target-setting at portfolio level—reporting of contribution to progress in a sector-specific way. ◾ Impact on the real economy and emissions—to the extent methodologies can be developed for this. ◾ Implementation via an integrated approach to applying environmental, social, and governance considerations for measuring and managing associated impacts. ◾ Joint engagement and monitoring of engagements based on the most authoritative, credible scientific input, to ensure consistency of messaging and necessary ambition. This will build on existing active ownership good practice already under development—such as ClimateAction100+.
