Sustainability

Our Impact

We believe Apollo is uniquely well positioned to drive positive impact across our workplace, marketplace and communities. We take an integrated approach, incorporating environmental, social and governance considerations into everything we do — from how we invest, to how we lend, to how our firm operates globally.

We've been focused on sustainability for over 10 years and our commitment remains a defining attribute of our Firm. Apollo strives to be an industry leader in data collection, transparency, and engagement with portfolio companies.

Driving a More Sustainable Future

Apollo aims to be a leading provider of capital for the energy transition. We see sustainability as an important part of our business' success and our collective future. By using sustainability as a driver of opportunity, we believe Apollo can help innovative companies that are working towards developing a cleaner world.

Expanding Opportunity

We have a long history of leveraging the full force of the Apollo ecosystem — deploying our resources, engaging our employees and creating new initiatives — to drive impact in our communities, most recently through the Apollo Opportunity Foundation.

Industry-Leading Transparency

Our approach to governance is grounded in transparency and trust. Strong and transparent governance is at the core of our business. We've created a clear corporate structure to ensure shareholders' voting rights. We pride ourselves on being a responsibly managed company, exemplified in our governance practices and by the standards to which we hold ourselves accountable.

  1. Apollo's 2024 Scope 3 reporting includes emissions from Fuel and Energy-Related Activities (Category 3), Waste Generated in Operations (Category 5) and expanded emissions from Purchased Goods and Services (Category 1).
  2. As of December 31, 2024. Firmwide targets (the “Targets”) to deploy, commit, or arrange, commensurate with Apollo’s proprietary Climate and Transition Investment Framework (the "CTIF"), (1) $50B by 2027 and (2) more than $100B by 2030 toward clean energy and climate capital opportunities. The CTIF, which is subject to change at any time without notice, sets forth certain activities classified by Apollo as sustainable economic activities ("SEAs"), and the methodologies used to calculate contribution towards the Targets. Only investments determined to be currently contributing to a SEA in accordance with the CTIF are counted toward the Targets. Under the CTIF, Apollo uses different calculation methodologies for different types of investments in equity, debt and real estate.
