B&CE, provider of The People’s Pension has appointed Leanne Clements to its Investment Business Unit as its new head of responsible investment.
Clements joins from the Carbon Tracker Initiative, an independent financial think tank, where she served as head of stewardship for the UK and EU.

Clements says: “I’m delighted to join B&CE at such an exciting time in its history, and at a pivotal time for responsible investment more broadly. I’m looking forward to building on the brilliant work the team has already done in this space and putting the best interests of the six million people saving with The People’s Pension, at the heart of our investment decisions.”
B&CE managing director of investments Jonathan Cunliffe says: “Leanne’s credentials and experience are first class and we’re so pleased that she has decided to join our expanding team. Responsible investment is at the very heart of what we’re about and her appointment is great news for our members.”
