Cambridge Associates is a global investment firm which works with endowments and foundations, pension funds, private wealth owners and family offices to build customised investment portfolios. With nearly fifty years of experience in building custom portfolios, Cambridge Associates is able to cater to the objectives of individual investors - including goals around sustainability - all of which is done in the pursuit of investment outperformance. Being responsible stewards of capital is at the core of what Cambridge Associates does, and this motivation has driven the company to be one of the pioneers in sustainable investing and at the cutting edge of ESG integration.
Environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) has never been more important to the world. Affecting meaningful change on climate issues can only really happen by engaging with companies and helping them in the decarbonisation process to drive carbon emissions down. Institutional investors can play an instrumental part by incorporating climate-aligned strategies in their portfolios. When investing for net-zero there are four points to keep in mind:
SInce there is no single “right” lever to pull, the journey to a net-zero world needs to be tailored to fit the unique needs and goals of individual investors.
For the world of sustainable and impact investing, there has been a change over the past twenty years. The tide has shifted away from a general awareness toward a rapid adoption of strategies, and with a more holistic approach. What might have started as simply a negative screening exercise years ago, grew into full ESG integration, and evolved to where many institutions are now actively financing real-world change. For example, some institutions are investing in battery technology, investing in the grid, and investing in all the ways that society needs to change in order to accomodate a lower-carbon world.
Achieving Net zero is an ambitious goal that applies to the entire economy. The bottom line is that either everyone succeeds, or nobody succeeds because it is about protecting and enhancing long-term system stability. In 2021, Cambridge Associates took a pledge to be net zero in solidarity with the firm’s clients. This matches observations which the investment firm has made that investors are not only expecting to embed sustainability within their own portfolios, but that they’re expecting their partners and advisors to do the same. Cambridge Associates is working alongside its clients to empower these societal changes.
Institutions have been investing in line with their missions and values for a long time, but Cambridge Associates is illustrating to investors that sustainable investing is a way not only to create a better world, but including climate considerations into portfolios leads to better investment outcomes and risk mitigation. This is where investors will gravitate, and Cambridge Associates will be there ready to help.
