Reclaim Finance has called on Lloyd's of London managing agents to stop providing stamp capacity for new thermal and metallurgical coal mines, thermal power stations, oil and gas fields, and LNG terminals by January 1, 2025. The organization argues that current commitments are "insufficient" and that continued support for fossil fuel expansion contradicts the International Energy Agency's (IEA) Net Zero Emissions Scenario, which requires a halt to new fossil fuel developments and a ten-fold increase in energy transition investments relative to fossil fuel spending by 2030.
