Delivering value through long-term ESG considerations
As an insurer, we are committed to supporting the protection needs of our customers over many years. Our investment strategy reflects our belief that ESG principles underpin proactive risk management, and help deliver sustainable risk-adjusted returns.
Empowering our workforce
Nurturing and growing our culture, building leaders and workforce capability and supporting and developing our people so that they can achieve their potential are key organisation and people priorities for AIA.
Building the foundation of trust
Effective Governance ensures that AIA operates to the highest standards. Our established reputation for responsible business practices and long history of maintaining robust governance processes have contributed to our 100-year legacy of trust in the region, and we are committed to upholding high standards of governance essential to delivering sustainable, long-term value creation.
Net Zero
We've committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. We've also committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to set ambitious emissions reduction goals in line with the latest climate science.
Climate Transition Plan
Together with the validated near-term targets, AIA Group has also published the first Climate Transition Plan. This is a significant step forward in the climate journey and delivering on our Net-Zero 2050 commitment.
Our TCFD Report
AIA embraces our role to address climate change as an insurer, asset owner, and responsible business. We have supported the voluntary adoption of the TCFD recommendations since 2018.
Our ESG integration approach
As an insurer, we recognise the potential impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues on insurance and investment portfolios and, conversely, the potential for insurance and investment portfolios to impact the environment and society.
