A lack of transparency that directly affects investors , who have no way of knowing the extent of capital at risk, or whether funds are being allocated to unsustainable businesses, says Barbara Davidson, lead author of the report.

It also highlighted that 71% of almost 600 other large funds governed by ESG criteria are not well aligned with the Paris Agreement .
