LCP is among the largest independent investment advisory firms in the UK. We have over 160 investment professionals, advising on over £350bn of assets. We help our clients invest responsibly and consider the real-world impact of their decisions.

At LCP, we are committed to supporting our clients and the broader investment community in taking account of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in investment decisions. We encourage them to take a systemic view, recognising that what happens in the real world impacts financial markets, and what happens in the financial sector impacts the real world.

We help our clients to manage risks and improve outcomes using a process of inform – agree – engage – change:

• Inform to understand the current position and what’s possible
• Agree on areas of consensus to define policy and clear actions
• Engage with managers to gain understanding and improve standards
• Change managers and/or select new managers and asset classes where appropriate.

We encourage our clients to align their investment strategy with net zero emissions by 2050 given the potential of climate risk to permanently destroy value.

We recognise that the scale of the challenges we face requires systemic change, including a policy and regulatory environment that aligns with and incentivises the net zero transition. We believe in using our influence as a firm, in collaboration with others where appropriate, by engaging with policymakers in the long-term best interests of our clients, as well as encouraging the managers and insurers we research and the clients we advise to do the same.
