Corporates’ progress towards net zero can be evaluated according to frameworks and guidelines – but until recently there has been no such foundation for assessing sovereigns’ progress.
AXA IM has developed a framework that can help investors assess a country’s net zero strategy and performance in accordance with the Paris Agreement objectives on climate change.
This will allow us to assess net zero alignment across sovereign and corporate fixed income assets, which are typically a considerable weight in our clients’ overall allocation.
