ESG Report 2026

ESG factors can affect both risks and opportunities. At LGT Capital Partners we believe that they should be assessed as part of informed investment decision-making. Recent periods of extreme heat and drought are a tangible reminder of the growing relevance of physical climate risks, while rapid developments in artificial intelligence are raising new questions for investors.

Our ESG Report 2026 looks at how ESG practices are evolving among the managers that we invest with, how selected ESG topics are becoming more investment-relevant and how the broader market environment is affecting ESG integration. The report brings together our annual ESG manager assessments, the findings from our ESG Survey 2026 and our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities.

Looking ahead, we expect responsible investing to become more selective, more evidence based and more closely linked to financial materiality. The focus will increasingly be on data quality, investment relevance and credible implementation.
