In brief
Climate emergency, an unprecedented challenge
The world today produces nearly 50 gigatons of CO2 per year. This amount is expected to almost double by 2100 if the planet maintains its current rate of emissions. However, if we wish to respect the global warming limits recommended by science at 1.5 ° C by 2100, we would have to completely reverse the trajectory until we bring our greenhouse gas production into negative territory.
The challenge is immense and the planet can no longer wait to ensure its survival and those of its inhabitants.
CPR AM, the climate partner for investors
Since 2017, CPR AM has developed expertise on the climate through an exclusive partnership with CDP, a benchmark NGO on the environmental assessment of companies. Our approach is inclusive and aims to encourage all efforts, including those of the largest emitters, as soon as they embark on a process of limiting their emissions.
Our role as a responsible asset manager is to finance a just transition to a low carbon economy by supporting companies in their changes. Today, we manage more than one billion assets in line with climate issues, through solutions for the three major asset classes.
Yield and carbon neutrality in the credit universe
Our Climate selection and ESG approach apply to the universe of private sector issues denominated in Euro, all countries, all maturities, in the Investment Grade and BB segment. This diversification thus provides the management team with all the leeway to seek returns regardless of market conditions.
Carbon neutrality is achieved through an objective of reducing the portfolio's carbon emissions at all times and through a mechanism for offsetting the remaining emissions.
