UKSIF responds to The Pension Regulator’s Climate Strategy publication
Commenting on the Pension Regulator’s Climate Strategy publication, James Alexander, CEO of the UK Sustainable Investment and Finance Association (UKSIF), said:
“We’ve previously published research showing that many pension schemes have not complied with producing their Statements of Investment Principles (SIPs) under the DWP ESG regulations, and have pushed strongly for a central directory of SIPs to improve scrutiny of schemes’ ESG policies. The commitment to enforcement action by TPR is a welcome step, and UKSIF looks forward to working closely with TPR on their proposal for an index of SIP web addresses as a starting point for the development of a decision-useful register of SIPs.”
