The Challenge: From Meters to Members

Alexander Forbes manages retirement savings for millions of South Africans across thousands of employer funds. Each fund invests across asset managers who hold equities in companies operating physical assets that generate real emissions.

Today, the data chain from physical meter readings to member-level carbon attribution is fragmented, manual, and largely invisible. Regulation 28 requires ESG integration. ISSB S1/S2 demands climate disclosure. The FSCA expects stewardship evidence.
