How we’re leading industry in creating a sustainable future

As EPPF embraces its 74th anniversary, we’re reinforcing our commitment to caring for you, your families and society at large. Your wellbeing and securing your future are central to everything we do. As a thought leader in industry, we’re also dedicated to ensuring meaningful and impactful change. 

 

We’re proud to continue our history of generating good financial returns and creating wellbeing for our members and society, while preserving the planet for future generations. Our commitment to a sustainable environment has seen us complete our maiden Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance submission on Net Zero climate plans. At our annual industry thought leadership event in Johannesburg in September 2024, Beyond Tomorrow with EPPF, we committed to continuing our search for competitive returns, while looking for more transformation, gender diversity and climate solutions-based investment opportunities. Industry stakeholders, including asset owners and other fund managers, heard how social justice, environmental regeneration and economic parity remain the focus of our sustainability priorities.

 

One of the main vehicles to ensure this impact is our Social Policy, which has been shared with industry. It highlights our commitment to social transformation. Some of the strides we’re taking include being intentional about attaining gender parity through careful policy targets that include having 30% of our assets managed by women-owned and women-led fund managers by 2033.
