Catalysing change for a secure future.

Shareholder strategy

Shareholder advocacy harnesses the legal rights of shareholders as the ultimate owners of companies.

We use our expertise in the tools shareholders have under corporations law, including the filing of shareholder resolutions, members’ statements and direct company engagement, to enable investors to escalate their engagements with major, heavy-emitting listed companies in their portfolios.

Company Research

ACCR has a comprehensive research capacity with expertise in company-level climate and financial analysis, energy transition and climate science.

Our team is drawn from the investment and finance sector, the oil and gas industry, and professional research fields. We produce a range of research as a guide to investment decision-making, including:

• In-depth company-level analysis of the climate transition plans of companies in our portfolio, contextualised with the latest climate science and company disclosures, assessing the credibility of transition strategies and identifying risks and opportunities for long-term investors.
• Thematic research into emerging issues in the energy transition.

Active Stewardship

ACCR works globally with institutional investors to deliver changes to the strategies of listed companies, in jurisdictions that are favourable to the use of shareholder rights.

Research and resolutions are just part of the work. Engagement, stewardship, activating shareholder powers and forming escalation pathways are significant activities in our approach with investors and companies.
