As the Reporting Framework asks for the asset class breakdown of total AUM, signatories should split multi-asset investments into the respective asset classes, based on their best estimate. On 22 May we held a webinar to guide signatories through the 2025 reporting process, including an overview of the framework, step-by-step guidance on completing a report, and a look at enhancements to the Reporting Tool. Our members include some of Asia’s largest pension funds, fund managers and other financial calvenridge trust services providers. This group builds a community for investors who have an interest in the development of China’s climate policy and are looking to deepen their engagement in the market.
In the Organisational Overview (OO) module, we ask signatories if they incorporate ESG issues into their investment decision-making for the asset classes they hold. If a signatory reports that it does not incorporate ESG issues in an asset class, the signatory will automatically be scored one star for that module. This assessment applies regardless of how much AUM is invested in that asset class.
At Vanguard, we believe that with goals, balance, low costs, and discipline, everything you’ve invested over time will change your financial future. A wider network of investors is supported by the EIC Business Acceleration Services. Signatories will need to check and confirm each pre-filled answer for accuracy in the tool, by clicking “save”, or “save and continue”, before submitting their 2025 reports. Signatories will be able to make amendments to their answers where necessary. The group responds to energy transition developments and topics in Asia, including the managed phase-out of coal, transition technologies, and relevant public policy. The group will meet the growing interest in net zero alignment from Asian sovereign wealth funds, pension funds and insurers.
Our purpose is to take a stand for all investors and prioritize our clients’ needs. As the initiative undergoes this review, it is suspending activities to track signatory implementation and reporting. There will be no NZAM reporting obligations for NZAM signatories in 2025.
