Publication of Sustainability Report
Pantheon Infrastructure PLC ("PINT" or "the Company"), the listed global infrastructure fund, has published its second Sustainability Report, for 2023 (the "Report").
The Report is available to read and download from the Sustainability page on the Company's website: Sustainability - PINT (pantheoninfrastructure.com).
As an Article 8 fund, PINT believes that sound sustainability, or Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG"), practices and operations are integral to building a resilient business that creates long-term value for shareholders and other stakeholders.
The Report contains the Company's first product-level disclosures aligned to the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures ("TCFD") and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) ESG Sourcebook, including portfolio-level Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions.
The Report also captures the progress of PINT and it's investment manager, Pantheon, over the course of 2023, including the introduction of Sustainability Scorecards to support effective benchmarking and engagement with investment partners, and the formalisation of a new framework that sets out the enhanced, comprehensive and cohesive approach to sustainability.
Richard Sem, Partner at Pantheon, PINT's investment manager, commented: "Sourcing responsible infrastructure assets is central to PINT's investment thesis. Sound sustainability practices and operations are integral to building a resilient infrastructure business and creating long-term value for PINT's shareholders and its stakeholders. We are constantly looking for ways to evolve and develop our responsible investment process, reacting to ever-changing market dynamics with a commitment to continuing to integrate sustainability factors across our investment processes.
"The Sustainability Committee continues to monitor the Company's sustainability strategy, with a focus on ensuring we are constantly monitoring and responding to evolving regulatory and best practice guidance. We are confident in the sustainability initiatives of our current portfolio, as well as our ability to identify attractive investment opportunities that can provide strong returns for our shareholders and exhibit positive ESG credentials."
