Everything we do at Nikko AM begins with sustainability. We want your investments to make a positive impact in our world, so we have made environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations part of all our investment processes. We are also determined to see the firms we invest in improve their corporate value and grow sustainably. We do this by meeting with them regularly and encouraging them to keep putting ESG factors first in their businesses.

Through our corporate sustainability activities, we have nurtured a culture of people who care deeply about our workplaces, our communities, and our world.
ESG in Investment
ESG drives our
investment strategies
Sustainability and ESG factors are the driving force behind our investment decisions. In 1999, we launched Japan’s first socially responsible investment fund, and we keep improving our ESG efforts and developing innovative ESG solutions for your investments. For example, the pioneering ESG assessments and digital tools we have created help us to make the best possible decisions.

We also understand the urgent need to address climate change through our business so, in 2021, we joined the Net Zero Asset Managers Initiative. In November 2022, as part of our participation in the initiative, we have launched a 2030 greenhouse gas emission reduction target. This interim target is to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 (compared to levels as of 31 December 2019) for 43% of total groupwide AUM (as of end December 2021). Further details with regards to our climate change approach will be released in our next TCFD report. This shows our commitment to strengthening our response to the crisis, in line with the Paris Agreement.
