LGT Capital Partners have been addressing climate change for many years with an ESG framework they apply to their investment activities. They have integrated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and other environmental metrics into their investment due diligence and monitoring processes. Over time, this has evolved into a carbon budgeting framework for companies, which was initially applied to their direct investment activities.

LGT Capital Partners have also integrated numerous climate-related data points and key performance indicators into the LGT ESG Cockpit, their proprietary ESG assessment tool. They developed a comprehensive climate action framework to align multi-asset portfolios with the goal of net-zero GHG emissions by 2050 or sooner. This work began with the development and subsequent rigorous implementation of their carbon budgeting framework for internal and external managers.
