The abrdn Sustainability Institute

Hong Kong, leading financial centre in Asia

Aberdeen Standard Investments has almost 30 years of track record in ESG integration, with sustainability resources located in Asia since 2007.  Currently, there are 5 dedicated ESG experts based in Singapore and Australia. 

The abrdn Sustainability Institute will engage policymakers to help shape the region’s ESG regulatory framework, support asset owners’ journey towards Net Zero and integrate ESG considerations in all investments.  The Sustainability Institute will also develop more best-practice sustainability training and education for investors and distributors, deliver deeper Asia-centric ESG insights and utilise APAC-based resources to build a wider array of innovative sustainable investment solutions for its clients.

The Sustainability Institute will be a fully integrated sustainability innovation hub that brings together experienced ESG experts from its Asia Pacific business to drive sustainability outcomes for investors. It will comprise ESG investment professionals across asset classes and sustainability specialists from various business functions, including regulation, product development, distribution and corporate sustainability.  Aberdeen Standard Investments will continue to add ESG-dedicated headcounts as part of its strategy to deepen its APAC sustainability capabilities.

The abrdn Sustainability Institute will be led by Danielle Welsh-Rose, Aberdeen Standard Investments ESG Investment Director APAC and advised by a Sustainable Investment Advisory Board and chaired by APAC CEO René Buehlmann.

René Buehlmann, Aberdeen Standard Investments, CEO Asia-Pacific
René Buehlmann, Chief Executive Officer – Asia Pacific at abrdn:

“Asia is still far behind the rest of the world in deploying sustainable investment strategies, but is moving fast to catch up with client demand.

Capitalising on our deep global and Asian ESG expertise, there is an opportunity for us to drive positive changes in the industry. Active engagement with companies, policymakers, industry partners and clients on ESG matters will be key to help build an impactful sustainable investing infrastructure in the region.”

 

New Sustainable & Climate Investments

Sustainable investing is a strategic priority for ASI, and will be launching new sustainable and climate-focused strategies to Asian investors in 2021.  The Sustainability Institute will also work with its clients to customise sustainable solutions, enabling them to play their part in supporting the global transition to a more inclusive, equitable and sustainable low-carbon economy, whilst achieving net-zero goals.

Aberdeen Standard Investments is one of the first asset managers in Asia-Pacific to have fully integrated ESG considerations into its investments across all asset classes.  As an active investor, over the years its Asian equity team has actively engaged with investee companies to drive better ESG standards and sustainable changes.  Its partnership with the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) aims to build an ESG ecosystem in emerging Asia – its Asian fixed income team has been at the forefront of leading direct issuer engagements to drive positive outcomes and enable capacity-building in the Asian credit markets to help attract ESG investments to the region.

In the private markets, Aberdeen Standard Investments is a pioneer in Australia’s green infrastructure investments, having been a leading co-investor in some of the country’s first public-private partnerships for green and social financing projects that were worth over AU$3 billion.

In addition, Aberdeen Standard Investments’ proprietary climate scenario analysis complements its investment team’s macro, sector and company research, providing a rigorous framework for managing climate-related financial risks and opportunities. This helps inform the fund managers’ engagement with companies on climate transition strategies, in order to build more resilient portfolios and improve long-term returns.
