We are one of more than 200 businesses and investors to call on the UK government to deliver a recovery from the pandemic which builds a more sustainable, inclusive and resilient UK economy for the future.
The letter to the Prime Minister conveys strong support for a plan from the UK Government which: drives investment in low carbon innovation, infrastructure and industry; supports sustainable growth and increased job creation; includes financial support package measures for businesses that are aligned with national climate goals.
LPPI has also signed
an open letter to EU leaders from investors on a sustainable recovery from COVID-19.
LPPI is a signatory on the
Sustainable Capital Markets asset owner statement. This statement recognises the importance of sustainable value creation and communicates how we prioritise long termism in the philosophy and approach of companies and asset managers that we invest in.
LPP has joined 307 long-term institutional investors, representing US$8.4trn in assets under management, in becoming a signatory of the
investor statement on Coronavirus response. We recognise the long-term viability of the companies in which we invest is inextricably tied to the welfare of their stakeholders, including their employees, suppliers, customers and the communities in which they operate. As such, we call on these management teams and boards of directors to join us in facing this unprecedented threat.
