A Norwegian NGO has accused Norges Bank Investment Management, which manages the country's sovereign wealth fund Government Pension Fund Global, of not voting in line with its own climate goals by failing to back shareholder motions calling on companies to take action to address global warming. The central bank's asset management division, which voted against 17 of 21 climate-related resolutions last year, echoes other institutions that say many resolutions are overly prescriptive or too broad in scope. However, sustainability issues remain a key concern for a group of 27 pension funds and other institutional investors with $2.5trn in assets under management that have called on governments to take urgent action at the Cop16 biodiversity conference in Cali, Colombia, to stem nature loss. They argue that sectorial transformation plans and mandatory disclosures are required to curb declining biodiversity and degradation of nature that threaten investment returns and investor confidence.
