Paul Hewitt Sustainability Actions

Appointed RI manager in 2022

The £7.7bn pension fund appointed Paul Hewitt as responsible investment (RI) manager in 2022 to develop a new approach and framework and ensure that ESG considerations are fully embedded in investment decision-making and stewardship.

Issued new responsible policy

The London Pensions Fund Authority has presented a new responsible investment policy, which it said will see it increase its monitoring and engagement activity around specific social, governance and environmental issues affecting its portfolio.

Policy shaped by member input

The policy was shaped with input from members. Hewitt said the fund learned from over 3,000 members who responded to a member survey in 2023, and that the RI policy includes fair pay and diversity, equity and inclusion in its priorities.

Climate policy in place since 2016

"The LPFA and our investment managers were already doing great work in RI and particularly around climate change where we have had a policy in place since 2016," said Hewitt.
