  • The State of Sustainability Assurance in the FTSE 350
    The state of sustainability assurance in the FTSE 350 Welcome to the 4th smart assurance index Carbon Smart is pleased to present the results of its 4th report edition revealing the state of sustainability assurance in the FTSE 350, celebrating those companies who demonstrate commitment to transparency and accuracy in sustainability reporting by committing resources to robust third party assurance. Less than 25% of the FTSE 350 have their sustainability data assured but with legislation coming into effect in September 2013 requiring all listed companies to declare their carbon emissions, the reporting landscape is altering. The ever increasing scrutiny being placed on company reporting processes only makes this research more important. We hope the smart assurance index will guide companies to avoid the pitfalls and extract maximum business value from their sustainability reporting. Managing Director, Carbon Smart “At British American Tobacco we feel assurance is essential for building credibility and trust with stakeholders as well as driving continual improvements internally. We are committed to leading developments to the practice, through sponsoring Carbon Smart’s research to improve standards in this area”. “The non-financial reporting landscape is evolving with greater requirements on companies to provide robust, transparent and auditable data. Greenstone is committed to streamlining data management and ensuring greater confidence when reporting, enabling companies to focus on analysing the results and achieving real business benefits”. 1. Introduction This year for the first time we have included a As sustainability reporting matures, driven by section on carbon intensity. We looked at the government regulation, public demand and sustainability reports of the 64 companies in company values, the need for credible the FTSE 350 that have their carbon footprint reported information becomes critical.

  • Underthebonnet
    JOHCM UK DYNAMIC FUND UNDER THE BONNET 2019 ANNUAL REVIEW Alex Savvides, Senior Fund Manager Tom Matthews, Analyst INVESTMENT BACKGROUND Global equity markets continued to move higher in December as economic indicators showed a pick-up in global growth, there was further progress in US-China trade discussions and the UK’s Conservative party won an overall majority in the general election. The JP Morgan Global Composite PMI ticked up from the previous month’s 44-month low following a steepening in China’s composite PMI growth rate and a strengthening in US business activity. US equities had a remarkable year, capped by President Trump announcing he would sign a phase one trade deal with China in January and move to negotiations on phase two. The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average and NASDAQ 100 total return indices all reached new all-time highs in December, with gains of 32%, 25% and 40% respectively for the year. We wrote the following in August’s ‘Under the Bonnet’: “When we come to reflect on 2019, July will likely be seen as a decisive… a month in which geopolitical brinkmanship came to a head, leading government and central bank policies to be reappraised which ultimately may lead to a new market narrative.” The progress in the US-China trade deal marked a clear de-escalation in this brinkmanship globally, but starker still were the final quarter’s developments in the UK: a new withdrawal agreement negotiated with the EU and - in December alone - the Conservative Party winning an historic majority in the general election and the withdrawal agreement subsequently being passed by parliament more than 13 months after Theresa May’s cabinet first backed her deal.

  • Remuneration Policy 2014
    BERKELEY ANNUAL REPORT 2014 / GOVERNANCE GOVERNANCE DIRECTORS’ REMUNERATION POLICY This section of the Remuneration Report contains details of the Company’s Directors’ Remuneration Policy that will govern the Company’s future remuneration payments. The policy described in this part is intended to apply for three years and will be applicable from the Company’s AGM in September 2014 subject to approval by shareholders at the AGM. The policy part will be displayed on the Company’s website, in the investor relations area, immediately after the 2014 AGM. The Committee has established the policy on the remuneration of the Executive Directors; the Board has established a policy on the remuneration of the Non-executive Directors. REMUNERATION POLICY The objective of Berkeley’s remuneration policy is to encourage, reward and retain the current Executives and ensure their actions are aligned with the Company’s strategy. The core philosophies of the policy are: • Fixed remuneration: The Committee sets salaries for the Executive Directors based on their experience, role, individual and corporate performance. Salaries on appointment to the Board are set at a lower quartile level of the comparator group which, based on appropriate levels of individual and corporate performance, will be increased with experience gained over time. • Annual performance related pay: The Committee believes that shareholders’ interests are best served by remuneration packages that have a large emphasis on performance-related pay which encourage the Executive Directors to focus on delivering the business strategy. • Long-term sustainable performance: The long-term incentives which extend to 2021 have been designed to lock in the Executive team for a far longer period than is typical in most publicly listed companies.
