Future-Fit

LD Pensions is working with the non-profit organisation Future-Fit to encourage companies in its portfolio to demonstrate responsibility in line with the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

We collaborate with the non-profit organisation Future-Fit. Future-Fit has developed a tool that helps companies identify areas for action and move in the right direction when it comes to working towards the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. By raising awareness of Future-Fit and by setting measurable sustainability requirements in our collaboration with asset managers, companies and Partners, LD Pensions aims to make a difference.

The environment, social responsibility and good corporate governance have always been part of LD Pensions’ DNA. However, we have lacked reliable data on sustainability. For their part, companies have lacked a tool that could provide a systematic and transparent framework for their self-assessment and reporting. This is what we, together with Future-Fit, can deliver.

About Future-Fit:
- The Future-Fit Business Benchmark is a self-assessment tool that companies can use to guide, measure and report on real progress.
- Future-Fit’s tool is used internationally. In Denmark, it is used by companies including Novo Nordisk, Ørsted and Maersk.
- Both start-ups and global companies, as well as investors, use Future-Fit’s tool.

A tool for businesses – and for ourselves

Our partnership with Future-Fit reflects LD Pensions’ desire to help ensure that all the companies in which we invest practise good corporate governance and conduct their business in a sustainable and responsible manner. This applies to companies across all sectors, as even the production of healthy products can have a harmful impact on, for example, the environment. LD Pensions does not merely focus on external factors. It is also a tool for setting the same measurable requirements for our own efforts to be a sustainable organisation. We therefore report on the same 23 areas that we require our Partners to report on.

Pilot project

We have launched a pilot project in which, through our asset managers, we offer selected companies in which we invest a ‘starter pack’ containing very specific tools and consultancy support. This makes it tangible for companies to commit to working with the Future-Fit tool and the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
