GCP Infra receives London Stock Exchange's Green Economy
Mark
-- GCP Infra recognised by London Stock Exchange as contributing to the global green economy.
-- The Green Economy Mark is given to companies and funds that
derive more than 50% of revenues from environmental solutions.
-- GCP Infra is the only UK listed fund focused primarily on
investments in UK infrastructure debt. At 30 June 2020 the
Company's investments in renewable energy were valued at
approximately GBP650 million, representing 61% of its investment
portfolio.
GCP Infra is part of the 2020 cohort of issuers to receive
London Stock Exchange's Green Economy Mark. This classification,
first introduced in 2019, was created to highlight companies and
investment funds listed on all segments of London Stock Exchange's
Main Market and AIM that are driving the global green economy. To
qualify for the Green Economy Mark, companies and funds must
generate 50% or more of their total annual revenues from products
and services that contribute to the global green economy.
The underlying methodology incorporates the Green Revenues data
model developed by FTSE Russell. It provides a detailed taxonomy of
environmental goods, products and services, and is designed to
recognise both 'pure-play' green technology companies, as well as
those across all industries that make significant contributions to
the transition to a sustainable, low carbon economy.
Ian Reeves CBE, Chairman of GCP Infra, said:
"We are pleased to have received London Stock Exchange's Green
Economy Mark, recognising the Company's contribution to the global
green economy. The Green Economy Mark supports GCP Infra in
communicating our green credentials to investors and other
stakeholders, highlighting our efforts to support the transition to
a low or net zero economy."
Denzil Jenkins, Interim CEO, London Stock Exchange plc said:
"We're delighted to announce the 2020 group of companies and
funds that have received the Green Economy Mark. There is growing
investor demand for actionable climate and environment-related
financial information, with global asset allocations to green and
sustainable finance increasing each year. The Green Economy Mark
underlines London Stock Exchange's commitment supporting issuers
and investors in the transition to a greener economy."
