Our Philosophy on Responsible Investment
Our focus is on the creation of long-term value for all our stakeholders, by delivering outstanding financial returns and positive social and environmental outcomes. We use our capital for good.
Tattarang is committed to investing to address the critical challenge of climate change.
We believe we can use our capital and position to lead and accelerate a timely transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy.
The science is clear that human-induced climate change is real. Tattarang accepts the scientific assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). In the same spirit, Tattarang supports:
- The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the ultimate objective of which is to stabilise atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic (human induced) interference with the climate system.
- The Paris Agreement, through which most governments of the world have committed to action that limits global temperature rises to well below 2 degrees Celsius relative to pre-industrial levels, and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
Our portfolio is diverse and spans multiple sectors, hence we have adopted a principles-based approach to decarbonisation across our wholly owned portfolio companies:
- To eliminate emissions, focused on energy efficiency and the phase out of fossil fuels
- To act now, using available technologies without waiting for breakthroughs
- To avoid using carbon offsets as a substitute for real action on decarbonisation
Collectively, we must act with all speed and determination to eliminate emissions. Climate change is already exacerbating environmental degradation and as a society, we must also adapt to protect human health and threatened ecosystems through environmental conservation measures.
If we do not act, we risk leaving enormous challenges, and terrestrial and marine ecosystem-wide destruction to the next generation.
Modern Slavery Statement 2024
Tattarang acknowledges the origins and purpose of Australia’s 2018 Modern Slavery Act and is strongly supportive of the role we must play in ending modern slavery in all of its forms.
We are committed to achieving the important objectives we set for ourselves in establishing an effective and robust modern slavery program at Tattarang and we are proud to make these significant commitments alongside the Australian and business community.
This publication is currently being assessed by the Attorney-General’s Department for approval and publication on the Modern Slavery Statements Register.
Code of Conduct
The Tattarang Code of Conduct is a set of guiding principles aligned to our Values and culture, and is a way we put our Values into practice. Our Code provides advice and guidance on how to conduct business ethically and in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and policies.
Our Values of Empowerment and Courage and Determination mean we can all speak up if we think something isn’t right or needs a second opinion.
The Code applies to all those who contribute to the goals of the organisation, including employees, contractors, consultants, board members, volunteers, and temporary or casual workers to ensure the highest possible standards of respectful and ethical business conduct.
Supplier Code of Conduct
The Tattarang Supplier Code of Conduct outlines our expectations of suppliers and partners and their conduct regarding labour and human rights, workplace health and safety, environment protection and ethical practices.
We care deeply about these issues and this Code is one tool that we use to communicate our expectations, and assess our suppliers’ compliance.
