Despite the efforts of countries, companies and communities to curb global warming, climate and weather patterns are changing rapidly. Our approach to identifying, managing and mitigating climate-related risks is disclosed through our Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) disclosures report and our submission to the CDP questionnaire.
As a family of businesses operating in high-growth markets that are more vulnerable to climate-related risks, we recognise we are both impacted by and we have an impact on climate change.
Our assessment has resulted in identifying some clear opportunities to enhance the ESG profiles of our portfolio companies. Climate mitigation and adaptation will help them reduce operational risk, enhance their valuations and increase our ability to raise capital.
