Stewardship & Corporate Engagement We support institutional investors in using stewardship tools to engage with systemically-important emitters in Asia. The ultimate goal is to improve companies’ climate disclosures and their progress on climate transition plans. As part of this, we help convene international initiatives such as Climate Action 100+ and the Asian Utilities Engagement Program, which is open only to AIGCC members.

Climate Action 100+: Asia Engagement Guide (2022 Edition) Download in English 简体中文 | 繁體中文 | 日本語 Decarbonising the global economy is complex. Successful engagement will require unique strategies and approaches across different businesses, regions and sectors. Investors engaging in Asian and emerging markets have experienced significant differences among these markets, including differences in policy and regulation, in the influence of different stakeholders on company practice and in-company practice and performance on climate change. This resource provides guidance for investors on how they can engage Asian and emerging market companies, and understanding how the Climate Action 100+ Benchmark relates to them. Climate Action 100+ Net Zero Company Benchmark Download in English 简体中文 | 繁體中文 | 日本語 The Climate Action 100+ Net Zero Company Benchmark helps stakeholders assess the performance of the world’s largest corporate greenhouse gas emitters on their net zero transition, and against the Climate Action 100+’s three high-level goals: emissions reduction, governance, and disclosure. It is not a disclosure mechanism or database itself. Rather, it is an evaluation tool for investor engagement that can be used by investors, all of whom will have differing mandates and starting points together with considerations of jurisdiction, regulation and best practice, from which they make their own decisions.
