Fund Joins International Climate Change Group

Falkirk Council Pension Fund has joined the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC).

The IIGCC is a member led organisation of over 190 members in 13 European countries with combined assets of over €27 trillion. It works to shape public policy and corporate behaviour to address the long-term risks of climate change.

Recent initiatives have seen the IIGCC write to EU leaders ahead of October and December meetings and separately to world governments urging countries to agree to a net-zero emissions target for the EU, to be achieved by 2050 at the latest, and to align all relevant EU legislation to the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Further information about the IIGCC can be found on their website https://www.iigcc.org/about-us/
