APG Asset Management delivers a textbook example of how sustainability can be fully embedded into infrastructure investment at scale. With value growth of more than 18% over three years and an 18.5% increase in real and infrastructure assets compared to 2023, the financial performance is both consistent and compelling. The submission outlines a rigorous and comprehensive investment process, underpinned by clearly articulated ESG principles, robust risk management and transparent governance. APG’s commitment is evident across all levels of its strategy, from stewardship and deep analytical capabilities to partnerships with global standard-setters. This is not only a demonstration of scale and diversification but also of innovation, particularly in its leadership role in decarbonisation and sustainable infrastructure. By allocating significant resources to measuring, reviewing and embedding sustainability throughout its operations, APG sets a global benchmark for best practice. This is a broad, well-structured and highly credible approach, combining financial strength with industry leadership in sustainable investment.
