Chief Executive Officer
Record’s Sustainability Office
Record’s Sustainability Office is made up of two bodies:
Our sustainability Committee is comprised of officer roles whose responsibilities cover key areas of sustainability that we have identified as being a priority.
Responsible investment
Record has identified responsible investment as an essential prerequisite to successful, resilient and prudent investment management. Consideration of ESG factors within investment strategy was a natural extension of our corporate philosophy, which continues to inform strategy development and perception of risk factors.
Record has been pioneering strategy research into currency and bond investment with impact. Read more below.
Climate Action
Since 2007, Record has been certified as CarbonNeutral® in accordance with the CarbonNeutral Protocol, the leading framework for carbon neutrality. This means we have been purchasing carbon offsets to deliver immediate emissions reductions through sustainable development and renewable energy projects for 14 years.
We understand there is an urgent need for further climate action and we have made a commitment to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Agreement and become net-zero by 2050 or sooner.
