Both Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire Pension Funds have responsible investment policies to assist with managing carbon and climate risks. To help them with their climate action plans, they’ve partnered with Osmosis Investment Management. Osmosis specialise in sustainable investment and have implemented two portfolios based on resource efficiency.
As part of this partnership, the Funds are supporting Osmosis’s Non-Disclosure + Campaign. The campaign aims to address the non-disclosure of water and waste data among some of the world’s largest corporations.
Lennart Hermans, Head of Research, Osmosis Investment Management commented.
“Our research demonstrates that a comprehensive approach to addressing the corporate environmental balance sheet – which considers carbon, water, and waste – will leave investors less exposed to a broader range of current and future externality risks. We hope that by working with like-minded peers within the financial community, we can actively encourage leading firms such as Amazon.com to measure and manage these risks. Disclosure is a vital mechanism through which financial institutions can safeguard their portfolios and reduce systemic environmental risks across financial markets.”
