Sustainability Summary
- This is an unclaimed profile. VERMONT has not joined Sustainability Tracker to verify their sustainability credentials. We gathered what we could from public sources.
Vermont’s Treasurer’s Office and the Vermont Pension Investment Committee (VPIC) state that they consider financial factors and environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in investment decisions. The VPIC has developed an ESG Policy to integrate ESG factors into the investment decision process and says that ESG analysis helps management teams monitor and mitigate ESG-related risks and track performance outcomes. The office also emphasizes engagement with companies on disclosure and reporting, referencing industry-recognized guidelines such as the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, and the Paris Climate Agreement. Vermont has also enacted a Climate Superfund Recovery Program requiring reporting on greenhouse gas emissions costs and climate adaptation measures.
