Amundi: Our investigation into Europe's biggest investor
Description
By acquiring Lyxor in early January, Amundi continues its meteoric growth. But this means that an increasing portion of its assets will escape any climate-related restrictions and that Amundi is leaving the door open for new investments in companies with expansion plans in coal and more broadly in the riskiest sectors. In this briefing, Reclaim Finance sets out the 3 big challenges Amundi will face in 2022 to remain credible on its climate commitments
