Publication of HICL's 2021 Sustainability Report
The Board of HICL is pleased to announce the publication of the
Company's 2021 Sustainability Report.
HICL is a long-term investor in core infrastructure: assets
which, by their nature, are essential to the day-to-day lives of
the communities that rely upon them. Embracing the responsibilities
that HICL has to a wide range of stakeholders is therefore central
to delivering the Company's investment proposition to shareholders
over the long term. The Board and the Company's Investment Manager,
InfraRed, are united in this perspective and share a commitment to
ensuring that HICL's sustainability strategy delivers tangible
outcomes.
The Sustainability Report is available on HICL's website and
includes a review of our sustainability performance; details of the
climate change impact assessment that was undertaken on the
Company's portfolio; illustration of HICL's commitment in action
via case studies; and an outline of next steps.
Ian Russell, Chairman of the Board, said:
"Providing well-maintained core infrastructure for communities,
which also generates sustainable income for shareholders over the
long-term, sits at the heart of HICL's Investment Proposition.
"The Board of HICL takes commitment to Environmental, Social and
Governance considerations very seriously. The detail in the Report
represents a step-change in disclosure which highlights the
Company's significant progress against its sustainability strategy.
This Report demonstrates the Company's intention to provide
leadership on sustainability matters across the infrastructure
sector."
Harry Seekings, Head of Infrastructure at InfraRed, said:
"InfraRed strives to be a responsible investment manager, and to
develop and manage long-term, sustainable infrastructure.
"We can only achieve long-term success for all stakeholders,
including investors, by taking ownership of the environmental,
social and governance outcomes across HICL's portfolio. The
Investment Manager shares the HICL Board's commitment to embracing
sustainability best practice."
