The Fund supports the work on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD).
TCFD is a framework through which asset owners, such as ourselves can assess how companies are transitioning to a low-carbon economy, and is becoming a rapidly growing framework.
The initiative is aimed at investors and assesses companies’ preparedness for the transition, supporting efforts to address climate change and it also informs investor research to support company engagement. The initiative has grown from strength to strength with support from 30 asset owners and managers with over £8.17 trillion assets under management.
The Transition Pathway Initiative (TPI) also launched its latest analysis of the world’s largest and highest-emitting public companies in three sectors at the heart of climate change: coal mining, electricity and oil and gas. TPI is a global climate action initiative supporting transition to a low-carbon economy, led by asset owners and aimed at investors.

The second anniversary of the Transition Pathway Initiative (TPI) was celebrated with the opening of the London Stock Exchange. TPI was co-founded in January 2017 by the Environment Agency Pension Fund (EAPF) and the Church of England Investing Bodies, creating an online tool to monitor how individual companies are planning to reduce their carbon emissions.
