Despite these figures, Coronation Fund Managers has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a lack of formalised goals for emissions reduction. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of their own operations. Overall, while Coronation Fund Managers has made strides in measuring their carbon footprint, further commitments and reduction strategies would enhance their climate action profile.
