New Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance interim goal After Wespath exceeded its goal of reducing the carbon intensity of its investment funds by 35% from October 2018 levels by 2025, Wespath has set a new 2030 interim goal of a further 20% reduction from its October 2018 baseline via shareholder engagement, asset manager engagement and transition finance. * Carbon emission data as of December 31, 2024. The carbon footprint is calculated in FactSet using the approved methodology provided by the Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance in its Target Setting Protocol. FactSet provides market data on fund securities, while emissions data is provided by Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS). ISS data is input directly into FactSet and programmed formulas are used to determine carbon emission data. Emissions data relies on pubic reporting and ISS’ estimations, may differ from emissions data from other sources, and is subject to change.
