Sustainability at SIMCo: Building a New ESG Framework

In this episode of Infra A Penny, Leah Dean, VP Sustainability, discusses SIMCo’s approach to sustainability and the thinking behind our newly refreshed Sustainability Framework.

Leah explains how environmental, social and governance considerations are integrated throughout the investment process, why SIMCo has introduced a new dual-scoring methodology, and how the framework has evolved in response to changing investor expectations, regulation, and the wider ESG landscape.

The discussion also explores the role of sustainability regulation, including SFDR, TCFD and the ongoing rollout of the IFRS Sustainability Standards, before looking ahead to the future of responsible investment and the key themes emerging during London Climate Action Week.
