Our Impact
We believe that “good” companies which understand what it means to make the world a better place will deliver enormous financial returns for investors
Reaching Net Zero
We’ve released an update of our 2024 Emissions Reduction Roadmap. What we’ve achieved so far, and what we plan to do next.
We want the world to be a better place because of where (and how) we invest our clients’ money.
And we’re making good progress. Since setting up Octopus in 2000, we’ve invested more than £9.7 billion into building a sustainable planet, empowering people and revitalising healthcare, impacting the lives of more than 2.5 million people.
Our philosophy is simple. We don’t believe that you have to choose between doing good and making money. Individuals are increasingly aware of the power of their money, whether directly as consumers or indirectly as employers.
Ultimately, they’ll choose to work for, buy from and invest with ‘good’ companies.
Our focus
Good companies recognise the climate emergency we now face. And they’re taking action rather than talking about it, minimising their own impact and using their position to influence others to make the changes we need to see.
The most valuable companies over the coming decades will be those that empower people and their communities to drive positive change. Improving living standards, productivity enhancements and providing access to digital learning, infrastructure and resources will be key.
Reimagining our health and wellness systems will require a shift from treatment to prevention. And billions of pounds will need to be invested into the world’s healthcare infrastructure so that our facilities are fit for purpose and allow our elderly to look forward to their retirements.
