On July 4, 2023, the PPF published its sustainability strategy, stating that its aim is to "lead by example on sustainability". The strategy outlines four key sustainability goals:

  • Demonstrating excellence in responsible investment.
  • Ensuring effective stakeholder engagement with integrity and respect.
  • Championing collaboration and leading by example.
  • Being accountable for minimising the PPF's environmental impacts.

The PPF has also set out some of the key targets it intends to achieve through this strategy. Its progress towards the targets will be reported on its website. They are:

  • An aim to reach Net Zero in its operational supply chain and travel emissions by 2035 "or sooner".
  • To contribute to the global transition to Net Zero through its investment portfolio and engagement activities.
  • Year-on-year, the PPF will achieve an increase in representation across all under-represented groups.
  • The PPF will ensure that at least 500 days are volunteered across the organisation.

Private Credit: Public Challenges

The private credit market and direct lending have grown and diversified immensely in the past decade, offering alternative sources and terms of debt compared to those historically provided by the syndicated leveraged loan and public issuance markets. Consequently, they are fast becoming pivotal components in the capital ecosystem, so much so that the Bank of England consider that the private credit market is currently responsible for approximately $1.8 trillion of debt issuance, which is four times its size in 2015. This growth has been particularly pronounced in Europe and the US but there has also been significant activity in Asia.
