Investor Group on Climate Change is actively engaging with the new 48th Parliament to present detailed recommendations for climate policy, including committing to a strong 2035 emissions reduction target, issuing comprehensive sector-by-sector plans, and amending the Climate Change Act to fortify national frameworks. The aim is to ensure a transition to a net-zero, climate-resilient economy that supports job creation and sustainable investment.

On April 15, 2025, IGCC publicly praised the Victorian Government for its progressive 5-year climate strategy that promotes an orderly transition to net zero, emphasizing the importance of climate policy in driving sustainable economic transformation.

On November 6, 2024, IGCC released a new report titled 'Activating Private Investment in Adaptation', which outlines recommendations for mobilizing private capital to support climate adaptation and resilience. The report calls on the government to legislate a National Adaptation Plan on par with the Net Zero Australia plan and urges investors to align their portfolios with national resilience objectives, aiming to mitigate the risks associated with capital flight from high climate risk areas.

The Investor Group on Climate Change (IGCC) is featured in a benchmarking study on corporate political expenditure and climate lobbying in Australia. The report, published by ACCR on October 12, 2023, highlights IGCC’s role in urging better governance and transparency in political spending, framing it as an essential part of responsible investment practice. This inclusion underscores IGCC’s commitment to holding corporations accountable for their political engagement, offering a counterbalance to opaque lobbying practices that can support authoritarian policies.

Investor Group on Climate Change (IGCC) has joined the Climate Action 100+ initiative as one of five coordinating partners alongside other influential investor groups. The coalition of 225 global investors, managing assets exceeding $26.3 trillion, aims to engage 100 of the world’s most carbon-intensive firms to enhance governance, disclosure, and action on climate change.

During the two-day IGCC Summit 2023 in Sydney, the Investor Group on Climate Change emphasized that asset owners and managers must rely on the Australian government's forthcoming decarbonisation pathways from the Climate Change Authority to address climate risk, signaling a proactive stance towards integrating climate considerations into investment strategies.

The Investor Group on Climate Change released a press notice calling on the G7 to uphold the Paris Agreement and continue driving policies that promote low-carbon investments. In the statement, CEO Emma Herd emphasized the need for strong policy commitments in light of concerns about President Trump’s support for fossil fuel interests.
