Thank you to DG Publishing for inviting me to speak at the annual Private and Public Pensions Summit alongside Frances Deakin, Nick Dixon, and Keith Gains.🌍 Our panel discussion centered around Net Zero targets and the practical implementation issues Trustees face to deliver against them. Stewardship was pointed to as a critical lever for achieving these targets. I argued that monitoring progress and the effectiveness of stewardship presents a significant challenge for Trustees, primarily due to the information asymmetry that exists between them and their investment managers. Most pension schemes lack access to the data and systems needed to track how engagement and voting activity are driving progress on Net Zero over time. At Compass Insights, we help investors implement systematic stewardship by providing them with tools to engage effectively, track progress and ensure manager accountability.📈 #Stewardship #ResponsibleInvestment #NetZero

There is a widespread misconception fiduciary duties prevent investors from intentionally pursuing improved sustainability impacts, but how do fiduciary duties and sustainability objectives intersect? Read this blog reviewing insights from legal and investment experts discussing the the compatibility of the two at Pensions for Purpose’s recent event, co-organised with Phoenix Group and Nikki King from Principles for Responsible Investment. Thanks to Callum Stewart FFA from Standard Life UK, Carolyn Saunders from Dentons, Keith Guthrie of Cardano and NOW: Pensions and Stuart O’Brien from Sackers for their insights. #Sustainability #FiduciaryDuty #PensionsforPurpose https://ow.ly/X8e450Rj7EP

It's great to see IFM Investors in the headlines on a topic that I care very deeply about - private market investments in DC pensions. This Professional Pensions piece about our partnership with Legal & General Investment Management (LGIM) on PMAF highlights the 19% allocation they will be making to our infrastructure investments. You may have seen me share the (very exciting) news on this partnership already, but this article breaks down why this partnership is so exciting: ✔️ A focus on infrastructure that can create long-term sustainable inflation linked returns ✔️ The opportunity for UK DC funds to take advantage of Australian approaches and deliver for their members while progressing sustainability objectives ✔️ And (very topical!) prioritising local investment Link here: https://lnkd.in/e-7evdCV Armit Bhambra, CAIA Jesal Mistry John Gee-Grant Luba Nikulina #IFMInvestors #Pensions #SustainableInvestment #privatemarkets #productivefinance #sustainability #infrastructure
