It will now require companies in the energy, utilities, industrials and materials sectors, as well as others identified as high greenhouse gas emitters, to integrate a climate component that is measurable, quantifiable and relevant to the company's sustainable development strategy into executive remuneration policies. BNP Paribas AM, which plans to extend the requirement to all companies by 2026, says that this year it opposed 36% of portfolio company annual general meeting resolutions, including 2,163 management proposals at 332 companies, for environmental and social reasons, with 79% of decisions to oppose stemming from climate or biodiversity-related expectations. The asset manager says companies' performance has improved since 2023 but it opposed as many AGM resolutions as the previous year because its expectations have increased.
