BP sets ambition for net zero by 2050, fundamentally changing organisation to deliver BP has set a new ambition to become a net zero company by 2050 or sooner, and to help the world get to net zero. The ambition is supported by ten aims:: Five aims to get BP to net zero:

1. Net zero across BP’s operations on an absolute basis by 2050 or sooner. 2. Net zero on carbon in BP’s oil and gas production on an absolute basis by 2050 or sooner. 3. 50% cut in the carbon intensity of products BP sells by 2050 or sooner. 4. Install methane measurement at all BP’s major oil and gas processing sites by 2023 and

reduce methane intensity of operations by 50%. 5. Increase the proportion of investment into non-oil and gas businesses over time.

Five aims to help the world get to net zero:

1. More active advocacy for policies that support net zero, including carbon pricing. 2. Further incentivise BP’s workforce to deliver aims and mobilise them to advocate for net

zero. 3. Set new expectations for relationships with trade associations. 4. Aim to be recognised as a leader for transparency of reporting, including supporting the

recommendations of the TCFD. 5. Launch a new team to help countries, cities and large companies decarbonise.

To deliver the ambition, BP will fundamentally reorganise to become a more focused, more integrated company, comprising:

• Four business groups to deliver performance and value growth: Production & Operations; Customers & Products; Gas & Low Carbon Energy; and Innovation & Engineering.

• Three integrators to identify and maximise opportunities: Sustainability & Strategy; Regions, Cities & Solutions; and Trading & Shipping.

• Four core enablers to support business delivery: Finance; Legal; People & Culture; and Communications & Advocacy.


BP is committed to performing while transforming: No change to BP’s fundamental commitments:

• to safe and reliable operations

• to delivering BP’s investor proposition, including commitments on: - growing sustainable free cash flow and shareholder distributions over long term; - maintaining strong financial frame and cost and capital discipline, and - deleveraging the balance sheet; - delivering 2021 free cash flow targets.

BP will host a capital markets day in September to set out its strategy and near-term plans. Bernard Looney, BP CEO said: “The world’s carbon budget is finite and running out fast; we need a rapid transition to net zero. We all want energy that is reliable and affordable, but that is no longer enough. It must also be cleaner. To deliver that, trillions of dollars will need to be invested in replumbing and rewiring the world’s energy system. It will require nothing short of reimagining energy as we know it. This will certainly be a challenge, but also a tremendous opportunity. It is clear to me, and to our stakeholders, that for BP to play our part and serve our purpose, we have to change. And we want to change – this is the right thing for the world and for BP.” Helge Lund, BP’s chairman, commented: “Energy markets are changing, driven by climate change, technology and societal expectations, and the Board supports Bernard and his new leadership team´s ambition for BP. Aiming for net zero is not only the right thing for BP, it is the right thing for our shareholders and for society more broadly. As we embark on this ambitious agenda, we will maintain a strong focus on safe, reliable and efficient operations and on delivering the promises we have made to our investors.” To read full press release, please see: https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/news-and-insights/press-releases/bernard-looney-announces-new-ambition-for-bp.html

Coventry University Has Launched Five Fully Funded Scholarships in Honour of Healthcare Workers Fighting COVID-19 in China Coventry University has launched 5 fully funded scholarships in honour of the courageous, committed and professional healthcare workers fighting the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in China. Many of these workers have risked their own health to support patients and communities as professional caregivers, nurses, doctors and emergency staff. The University is proud to pay tribute for their service and bravery with the brand new National Hero Award.

5 students will receive this award, which will fully fund tuition fees for the first year of an undergraduate or postgraduate course. Although scholarships from health professionals looking to study a healthcare course are welcomed, Coventry University recognise that many heroes may want to broaden their skills outside traditional healthcare. Many ‘unsung heroes’ may also not fit into the traditional healthcare roles. That’s why the award will be available for any course if the applicant’s personal statement shows that they’ve gone above and beyond the call of duty during the 2020 outbreak. Courses at both Coventry University and Coventry University London are available, including business, finance, law, arts and engineering. Dr David Pilsbury, Deputy-Vice Chancellor, said: “We have a very active Chinese student community and this particular suggestion came from the Chinese Students and Scholars Association. We thought it was a great idea and very quickly operationalised it. Our relationships with partners, students and their families in China are of great importance to us, and we continue to stand in solidarity with all those affected by the virus. By launching these awards, we want to demonstrate that our mission is about attracting talented young people who feel a real passion for making a difference to the world. The team is conscious of the global nature of the outbreak and is actively considering extending the program to some of the other countries that are affected.”

Grant Thornton in collaboration with China Daily Release 投英 Tou Ying Tracker 2019 Published: 27 February 2020 Chinese companies in the UK are thriving Now in its seventh year, the Grant Thornton Tou Ying Tracker research confirms the increasingly significant contribution Chinese companies are making to the UK economy.

Our 2019 Tou Ying Tracker covers almost 800 Chinese companies1 that together have combined revenues of £91 billion, up from £68 billion for the 750 companies identified in 2018. They report overall revenue growth of 17%, an increase of 12% on 2018. Between them, they employ over 71,000 people, up from 62,000 in the year before2. These 800 businesses represent only a fraction of the Chinese companies doing business in the UK. In total, we identified over 13,000 companies that are part of a China-owned corporate group or are majority held by a Chinese national, and 100 representative offices. 30 fastest-growing Chinese companies in the UK report strong growth This year, the 30 fastest-growing Chinese companies in the UK (TY30) continue to grow at an impressive rate, reporting an average increase in annual revenues of 62%. Between them, these 30 companies employ over 5,500 people. Manufacturing and industrial companies dominate the TY30, accounting for 86% of TY30 revenues. Meanwhile, the fastest-growing companies are in the TMT (technology, media and telecoms) sector, recording average growth of 81%. M&A China-UK deals down from 2017 peak During 2019, the Chinese government’s restrictions on outbound investment showed a clear impact on deal volumes. Excluding real estate, 44 deals took place in 2019, down 20% from the 2017 peak. The total value of this year’s deals was £3.6 billion, down 78% on the £16.6 billion recorded in 2017. Our report includes a full list of the deals driven by Chinese investment over the course of the year. This year, for the first time, we looked at how the growth rate varies according to how the original investment was made. Among the TY30, the highest average growth rate, 72%, was found among companies that were a direct UK investment. Those that were an indirect investment via a foreign


parent acquisition reported average growth of 64%, while average growth through organic expansion was 55%. The UK’s exit from the EU may reshape Chinese-UK trade and investment opportunities The UK’s withdrawal from the EU could signal the start of a new era in China-UK trade and investment. Simon Bevan, Head of our China-Britain Services Group, commented: “The UK government elected in December 2019 is likely to build trade and investment channels with countries like China as an antidote to the greater friction in UK-EU trade. How soon this might result in a UK-China trade deal remains to be seen." “While the outbreak of Convid-19 is currently impacting travel to and from mainland China, which may interrupt the ability of Chinese businesses to pursue and complete overseas deals and to visit their existing international operations, one thing is clear – the UK is committed to strengthening its relationship with China. But a wide range of international events and trends will continue to shape trade and investment patterns between the UK and China for some time to come.” The full report can be downloaded from the Grant Thornton website For more information, contact: Simon Bevan - Partner, Head of China Britain Services Group, Grant Thornton https://www.grantthornton.co.uk/en/people/simon-bevan/

PwC and City of London Corporation Released A Jointly Authored Report – Titled London as A Centre for Management of Financial Risks In late January 2020, PwC and City of London Corporation released our jointly authored report - which compares the UK with fellow international financial centres - titled London as a Centre for Management of Financial Risks. This report is a valuable tool to showcase why London continues to outstrip fellow international financial centres in areas including risk management, hedging and insurance, foreign exchange and regulatory compliance. Specifically, it aims to encourage international multinational companies to choose the UK as a place to locate their corporate treasury operations, leveraging the City’s deep capital market, wide range of financial instruments and global reach. For example:

• The UK’s share of global turnover from FX trading is 43.1% compared to Singapore’s 7.6%; • London is the only place where every top 20 insurance and re-insurance firm is active; • 27% of the world’s 320 legal jurisdictions are governed by systems based on English common

law; • London’s share of global turnover from interest rate derivatives trading is 50.2%, compared

to the US at 32.2%. Alongside City of London Corporation, PwC have already successfully used this report with a number of key clients during a November 2019 trip to Beijing and to China’s Greater Bay Area. It is also expected to be used to promote the UK financial and professional services sector during visits overseas by the Lord Mayor of the City of London and Policy Chair this year, in countries including India and China. On release of the report, tax partner at PwC Graham Robinson said: "The report underlines how the UK continues to be the pre-eminent market for financial services as well as a prime location for international businesses to access corporate finance and treasury markets and expertise. “Despite the uncertainty of recent years, the UK has provided an environment in which multinationals are able to thrive. Optimising this competitiveness will clearly be of paramount importance in the years to come.” For more details please see: https://news.cityoflondon.gov.uk/city-corporation-shows-uk-remains-on-top-of-risk-management/ For more information, please contact: Graham Robinson ([email protected])


Standard Chartered commits USD75bn towards Sustainable Development Goals Bank also commits to net zero carbon emissions from its operations by 2030 On 21st February Standard Chartered announced new business targets for supporting its clients as they transition to a low carbon economy as part of its Sustainability Aspirations. By the end of 2024, the Bank commits to: • Providing USD40 billion of project financing services for infrastructure that promotes sustainable development • Providing USD35 billion of project financing services, M&A advisory and debt structuring services for renewables and clean tech projects (solar and wind) Underpinning the aspirations, Standard Chartered also intends to reduce its emissions across its global properties by 2030. With an office footprint spanning 60 markets, including many large emerging markets, the Bank will achieve net zero emissions by only sourcing energy from renewable sources and continuing to pursue energy efficiency measures across its 12 million square feet of property. Tracey McDermott, Group Head, Corporate Affairs, Brand & Marketing, commented: “Over the past 18 months, we have made a series of commitments which are all geared towards supporting the Paris Agreement on climate change and the transition to a cleaner, greener, fairer economy. We know that the investment required cannot be provided by governments and NGOs alone, so it is critical that investors embrace the Sustainable Development Goals at pace and scale.” “Our unique footprint means we are well placed to help get finance to where it matters most. That is why, as well as ceasing support for clients who generate more than 10% of earnings from thermal coal by 2030, we also have a renewed target for financing and facilitating USD35 billion of clean technology and renewables, and USD40 billion of sustainable infrastructure.” Standard Chartered has a broad range of sustainable finance product offerings that can be deployed to help clients pivot their business towards a more sustainable model. In October 2018, it created the Sustainable Finance team and has since launched sustainable deposit products in London, Singapore, Hong Kong and New York; plus, a EUR500 million Sustainability Bond, the proceeds of which will be used to provide finance in areas aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals – including clean energy projects, smaller business lending and microfinance loans.
