The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report, which has been made public for the first time by the fund manager, details all the measures it is adopting as part of its strategic commitment to sustainability. The BBVA Group first published this report in 2020 and updates it on an annual basis.
BBVA AM, like BBVA, is aware of the role of banking and financial players in this time of change through our activity, and they are determined to play a relevant role and help their clients in the transition to that sustainable future”, the report explains. “As our clients' asset managers, our duty is to take advantage of the investment opportunities generated and facilitate plans for companies and governments to make the right investments, as well as to assess the risks for those who do not have plans to adapt.”
BBVA Asset Management's TCFD report is structured in four sections: Governance Model, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Objectives.
