Beyond its direct operational footprint, HgCapital LLP is actively engaged in driving climate action within its investment portfolio. It has committed through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure that 26% of its private equity investments, by invested capital, will have set science-based targets by FY2026, with a long-term goal of 100% by FY2040, based on a FY2021 baseline. These portfolio targets encompass 85% of its total investment and lending activities. The SBTi targets are consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C.
