CCLA and LAPFF are inviting investors to support a letter to FTSE 100 companies (excluding investment trusts) encouraging them to provide shareholders with a vote on their climate transition plans at their 2027 AGM or a future meeting.

This is the sixth consecutive year of engagement on this issue. Last year, investors representing £3.1 trillion in assets under management supported the initiative. Around one fifth of the FTSE 100 now offer shareholders a dedicated vote on their climate transition plans, and this engagement seeks to build further momentum across the market.

Shareholder votes on climate transition plans are an important governance tool, providing investors with a clear mechanism to express their views on companies’ strategic responses to climate-related risks and opportunities, and supporting long-term resilience and accountability.

A copy of the investor letter can be found in the 'files' section of this collaboration.

Next steps

If you would like to support this initiative, please contact Tessa.younger@ccla.co.uk AND Isabella.freeland@lapfforum.org with your organisation name as you would like it to appear and your total assets under management. AUM will only be referred to publicly in aggregate across signatories. The deadline for signing is 31 July 2026.
