ABOUT CLIMATE ACTION 100+

Climate Action 100+ is an investor-led initiative to ensure the world’s largest
corporate greenhouse gas emitters take necessary action on climate change.

More than 615 investors, responsible for over $65 trillion in assets under
management, are engaging companies on improving climate change governance,
cutting emissions and strengthening climate-related financial disclosures.

The work of the initiative is coordinated by five regional investor networks:
the Asia Investor Group on Climate Change (AIGCC), Ceres, Investor Group on
Climate Change (IGCC), Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC)
and Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). It is supported by a global
Steering Committee.

Launched in December 2017, Climate Action 100+ garnered immediate worldwide
attention. Designed by investors for investors, the initiative aims to ensure
the world’s largest corporate greenhouse gas emitters take necessary action on
climate change.

> [Climate Action 100+ investors] … have committed to engage with the world’s
> largest corporate greenhouse [gas] emitters to improve their climate
> performance and ensure transparent disclosure of emissions … they are betting
> on green because they understand this is the path to prosperity and peace on a
> healthy planet. The alternative is a dark and dangerous future.

António Guterres, United Nations Secretary General September 2018

The initiative was formed in the wake of the 2015 Paris Agreement, a global
accord signed by nearly 200 countries (and ratified by 170), aiming to keep the
increase in global average temperatures to well below two degrees Celsius above
pre-industrial levels, and pursuing efforts to limit warming further to 1.5
degrees Celsius. The investor signatories of Climate Action 100+ believe that
engaging and working with the companies in which they invest, to secure greater
disclosure of climate change risks and robust company emissions reduction
strategies, is consistent with their fiduciary duty and essential to achieve the
goals of the Paris Agreement.

Climate Action 100+ has become the largest ever global investor engagement
initiative on climate change, with growing influence and impact. Since launch
Climate Action 100+ has experienced 170+ percent growth in investor
participation. Investors working through the initiative are now engaged across
33 markets and represent over 50 percent of all global assets under management.

How we got here


THE STEERING COMMITTEE

Climate Action 100+ is overseen by a global Steering Committee that establishes
initiative strategic priorities, governance and infrastructure. The committee
also reviews companies that have been subject to a corporate action and decides
on a case-by-case basis if they should be removed from the focus list. Regional
investor networks are responsible for submitting any revisions to the focus list
to the Steering Committee, listing the reason for change. These can include
merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or delisting.

The Steering Committee comprises five investor representatives and the heads of
five investor networks. In recognition of the global nature of the initiative
and the different priorities and conditions for company engagement in each
region, the roles of Steering Committee Chair and Vice Chair rotate every six
months between different regional representatives. Investor representatives are
appointed by the five regional investor networks. The Steering Committee’s work
is supported by a series of working groups including: Strategic Projects Working
Group; Engagement Coordination Working Group; Communications Working Group;
Governance Working Group, and the Fundraising Working Group.

comparisons within sectors and regions. 

The Technical Advisory Group is chaired by Cynthia McHale, Senior Director,
Ceres, and is made up of the below organisations.

2 Degree Investing Initiative: An international, non-profit think tank working
to align financial markets and regulations with the Paris Agreement goals.
