2.2 - Assessments of the climate-related impacts of the Group’s insurance activities
In its insurance activities, Groupe BPCE made a proactive and concrete commitment against global warming in 2018 by aligning its investment policy with the objectives of a 2°C trajectory in accordance with the Paris Climate Agreement. In 2020, it decided to strengthen this commitment by aiming to align its main insurance fund with a 1.5°C trajectory by 2030. It also aims to invest 10% per year in ‘green’ assets in order to reach 10% of the target portfolio by 2030. Achievement of these targets has been tracked every quarter since the commitment made in 2018 (see the graph below).
For its insurance activities, the Group is aiming to align its main insurance fund with a 1.5 °C trajectory by 2030.
