SummarySummary Companies ClientEarth files novel UK case to hold directors accountableUK, Swedish, Danish, Belgian and French funds support lawsuitClaim alleges Shell board mismanaging climate risk, breaches lawLONDON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - A group of European institutional investors is backing a novel London lawsuit against energy giant Shell's (SHEL.L) board over alleged climate mismanagement in a case that could have far-reaching implications for how companies tackle emissions. Shell rejected the allegations, saying its climate targets were ambitious and on track and that its directors complied with their legal duties and acted in the company's best interests. "ClientEarth's attempt ... to overturn the board's policy as approved by our shareholders has no merit," a spokesperson said. London CIV said its Shell stake was a "primary hotspot of risk and exposure within our portfolio". The case comes two years after Shell was ordered to slash carbon emissions in a landmark Dutch climate case.
Exxon has yet to set any 2030 Scope 3 target. Shell said it believed its targets are aligned with the U.N. climate targets. We remain committed to constructive engagement with our investors," a Shell spokesperson said in a statement. The group of investors co-filing the resolutions includes Edmond de Rothschild Asset Management, Degroof Petercam Asset Management and Achmea Asset Management. Exxon and Chevron have in the past successfully blocked attempts to file climate resolutions with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
