Climate Change
Funds SA recognises that climate change presents a systemic risk impacting potential investment returns over the coming decades. In 2021, we published our Climate Change Position Statement that outlines our approach to addressing climate change risks in line with the objectives of the Superannuation Funds Management Corporation of South Australia Act 1995.

Climate Risk Response Plan
Our approach to climate change risk will evolve as science, policy, and investment markets develop a greater understanding of climate resilient investment portfolios. We have developed a Climate Risk Response Plan, in which we outline the initial actions we will take to meet our goal of managing the long-term financial risks, the opportunities of climate change, and the transition of our portfolio towards Net Zero Emissions by 2050.
To achieve our commitment to Net Zero by 2050, we will take action across our 5-Pillar Climate Risk Response Plan Framework to support a 45% reduction in global emissions by 2030, consistent with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Modern Slavery
Funds SA recognises that modern slavery has severe consequences for victims. It may also impact the value of implicated companies.
While Funds SA is not a reporting entity under the Commonwealth Modern Slavery Act 2018, we see it as critical to incorporate modern slavery risk considerations into investment decision making.
Our Modern Slavery Position Statement outlines how we are addressing modern slavery risks in line with the objectives of the Superannuation Funds Management Corporation of South Australia Act 1995.
