Macquarie Asset Management
The world’s surging demand for electricity continues to represent a historic opportunity for the renewable energy sector, which has demonstrated its resilience throughout the challenging macro-environment of recent years.
All investments overseen by GIG, whether held on our own balance sheet or by funds managed by Macquarie Asset Management, are subject to our green impact governance approach.
For broader sustainability considerations, we apply Macquarie Asset Management’s approach to identifying and managing Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks and opportunities. This approach considers a broad range of issues, including work health and safety, transitioning our assets towards net zero emissions, stakeholder engagement and many others.
We continue to give the Green Purposes Company an opportunity to provide its annual commentary on our contribution to the Green Purposes.
