Our commitment to building a sustainable future has always been guided by the belief that responsible business is essential for creating long-term value for our clients, our people and wider society. This year’s 360 report reflects this belief, offering a look at how we are putting our sustainability commitments into action across the business.
The report outlines our ongoing efforts to strengthen our operations – from our target of using 100% renewable energy by 2030, to partnerships that give a second life to electronic equipment. It highlights key milestones reached in 2024, including important progress made to ensure a unified strategy across all our divisions. The introduction of the Chief Sustainability Officer role, which I am proud to hold, marks a significant step in our approach to leadership and the alignment of sustainability efforts throughout the firm. We also provide insights into our sustainable investment framework and the continued expansion of our stewardship strategy, having become the first European wealth manager to introduce pass-through voting in 2024 – enabling us to reflect our clients’ views in how their investments are stewarded. Additionally, the report explores our long-term support for charities and social initiatives, and the role that diversity, inclusion and employee wellbeing play in building a strong, forward-looking organisation. Collectively, these actions reflect our commitment to managing LGT responsibly, adapting to a changing world and making decisions with a long-term perspective.
Global events from the past year have once again shown us that sustainability is not an abstract concept about the future – it is a present-day business and societal priority. From the UK closing its last coal-fired power station to the rapid expansion of renewable energy across Europe, the momentum for change is already here. We believe that financial markets have a vital role to play in the global transition towards a greener and more equitable society. To this end, we are committed to leading by example in our industry, as stewards of our clients’ capital and with a focus on driving positive change for future generations.
Our approach to sustainability is rooted in the values of our owner, the Princely Family of Liechtenstein, who have long championed sustainable thinking in both business and society. Their leadership reinforces our conviction that sustainability must be embedded in decision-making today if we are to create lasting prosperity.
At LGT, our ambition is clear: net zero across our operations and own investments by 2030. But beyond this target, it is about ensuring that sustainability continues to shape our business practices now, driving resilience, efficiency and strong outcomes for our clients.
