We focus on practical support, ensuring our contributions are useful, respectful and built for the long term.
For us, sustainability is about creating long-term value in a changing world. It means managing risk, identifying opportunity, building resilience and delivering on what matters to our clients, people and communities. As stewards of our clients’ capital, we consider the material ESG issues most relevant to achieving outcomes over the long-term, including the role of capital allocation in responding to these issues.
The issues that matter are not the same in every asset class or industry. We tailor our approach, focusing on what is most relevant for each of our asset classes and apply it through due diligence, monitoring, stewardship and reporting.

Our approach combines funding with volunteering and workplace giving, with a focus on support that is thoughtful and sustained.
We recognise that reconciliation is an ongoing responsibility. Our reconciliation activities are focused on supporting greater economic participation for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Through our First Nations Community Program, we support opportunities that strengthen economic participation, employment and education outcomes for First Nations peoples, organisations and communities.
QIC’s previously announced portfolio climate targets and Climate Transition Plan are currently under review. The review has been initiated to ensure alignment with regulatory requirements under Australia’s mandatory climate-related disclosure regime (AASB S2), including expectations regarding target setting, disclosure and audit readiness.
It will be undertaken consistent with QIC’s external commitments, including the Net Zero Asset Managers (NZAM) initiative, to ensure QIC’s targets remain credible, transparent and decision useful.
We will continue to implement our climate response in a manner consistent with our fiduciary obligations and provide regular, transparent communication of our progress. Revised climate targets and an updated Climate Transition Plan will be published in FY27.
