Our approach to responsible investment
At Aegon, we have a strong track record as a provider of investment strategies that consider ESG factors within their investments.
We've over 30 years' experience managing responsible investments and have over £23 billion invested in funds that consider ESG (as at 31 December 2023).
In 2019 we committed to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions for our pension default funds by 2050 and to a 50% reduction in emissions by 20301.
We've pledged £500 million by 2026 to climate solutions - investments that directly contribute to climate change mitigation and/or adaption, such as investment in renewable energy.
We’re a signatory of the UK Stewardship Code - a set of 12 principles that sets high standards for responsible investment on behalf ok UK savers and pensioners.
Collaboration is key to driving change, so we’ve signed up to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment and joined initiatives like the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC).
We offer a range of funds that consider environmental and social factors, designed to suit your investment preferences.

There's no guarantee the funds will meet their objectives. The value of investments and any income taken, can fall as well as rise and isn't guaranteed. The final value of a member's pension pot when they come to take benefits may be less than has been paid in.
