DGPP’s first climate disclosure

​​​​​​​​April 22, 2025

To mark Earth Day, the Desjardins Group Pension Plan (DGPP) has released its first Report on Climate-Related Risks and Opportunities​. This report represents a significant milestone in the evolution of its responsible investment (RI) approach and reaffirms its commitment to sustainable finance through transparent disclosure.

Based on the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), an international framework designed to improve the communication of climate-related financial risks, the report is structured around four pillars: Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Targets. It highlights how the DGPP is working to assess, manage, and integrate climate issues into its investment strategy.

This initiative builds on the many actions already undertaken by the DGPP to communicate its RI practices, including its Responsible Investment Policy, its PRI Public Transparency Report, and the dedicated section in its Annual Report.

By publishing this report, the DGPP continues to advance its responsible investment practices and furthers its efforts to ensure the long-term sustainability of its commitments.  ​
