The East Sussex Pension Fund has received a national award.
The Fund was awarded Local Government Pension Scheme Fund of the Year (for assets over £2.5 billion) at the Local Authority Pension Fund Investment Awards.
This top industry honour recognises the implementation of best practice, leadership across pension fund operations, investment performance, governance and administration and collaboration and leadership.
Cllr Gerard Fox, Chair of the Pension Committee at East Sussex County Council, said: “Winning the LGPS Fund of the Year award is a fantastic achievement and testament to the hard work of our officers and advisors in managing the Fund.
A great deal of work and thinking has been undertaken to address both the challenges and the opportunities presented by climate change, sustainability, and the energy transition. This has helped us to better align the Fund’s portfolio with these themes, allowing it to play a role both in providing climate solutions, as well as protecting the interests of our scheme members.
Being highly commended for our Climate Change Strategy is a welcome acknowledgement of this ongoing work and the substantial changes that we have made.”
