More than 270 investors are signatories to the Net Zero Asset Managers initiative. These investors and the companies they have invested in should work together to achieve such commitments in their business operations and supply chains. When an asset manager joins this initiative, it is required to disclose its net-zero targets within a year. Twenty-four managers have committed 100% of their assets under management to net-zero targets, 19 managers have committed 75% and 30 managers have committed at least 50%. To accelerate the alignment of assets with net-zero goals, managers use three methodologies, validated by the Net Zero Asset Managers initiative:<\/span><\/p><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parisalignedinvestment.org\/media\/2021\/03\/PAII-Net-Zero-Investment-Framework_Implementation-Guide.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paris Aligned Investment Initiative Net Zero Investment Framework<\/span><\/a><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sciencebasedtargets.org\/resources\/files\/Financial-Sector-Science-Based-Targets-Guidance.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Science-Based Targets initiative for Financial Institutions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/7f0f76c0.sibforms.com\/serve\/MUIEAIur29pQSJ5rYUdFx0Eih-9JG7Fp0hkzMbttsriWSujcaZ4F268OBox98H0iIr_rDktJ9D1ruevEdIcqJ-41-fhKVuicMk2yuw2S_zll5nqnVCxRMjYxTe5s7OEsfR0L9l11tt0c4Hu5y_2F6xAWs5vcX8ggYKkXRG7KwXPbDpr-4WvQZSvqmCtj_3EZWL3SFcRd7MT4khtw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance Target-Setting Protocol<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-883f87a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"883f87a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c9b33cb\" data-id=\"c9b33cb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c72c79b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c72c79b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>A. <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parisalignedinvestment.org\/media\/2021\/03\/PAII-Net-Zero-Investment-Framework_Implementation-Guide.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><b>Paris Aligned Investment Initiative Net Zero Investment Framework<\/b><\/a><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The initiative was launched by the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC) in Europe in May 2019 to help investors align their goals with the Paris Agreement.

It is also necessary to educate their clients on climate risk. It would be difficult for an asset manager to commit 100% of assets under management to net-zero targets at the outset. However, asset managers are adopting methods to achieve this. One method is taking a top-down emission-reduction approach, where it targets reducing 50% of carbon emissions by 2030. The second is the accountability mechanism through which decarbonisation is achieved. Another is the bottom-up portfolio coverage approach, where 90% of assets are aligned with a net-zero pathway. Some asset managers have already begun client engagement programmes to increase climate-related discussion, and many asset owners with a sustainable background have been able to include a large portion of assets under management in their initial targets. Asset managers are a powerful segment; they hold two-thirds of global assets that could contribute towards net-zero emissions to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5\u00b0C.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Net Zero Asset Managers initiative was launched in December 2020 with the objective of achieving net zero by 2050 for the asset management industry and limiting global warming to 1.5 \u00b0C.
