The Hong Kong-based insurance company AIA, whose logo features on Tottenham Hotspur shirts, has bowed to pressure from campaigners and announced it will pull out of all coal investments by 2028.
AIA, the largest independent, publicly listed pan-Asian life insurance group, made the pledge in its environmental, social and governance report released this week. It is the first major insurance company in Asia to promise such a move.
AIA has $326bn of funds under management and is estimated to hold up to $6bn in coal and coal-fired power assets, according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis.

HSBC has dodged a backlash from major investors at its next annual meeting by pledging to phase out financing of coal-fired power by 2040.
The pledge, which will go to a vote at its annual meeting in May, follows months of pressure on Europe s biggest bank from investors and activists.
A group of shareholders managing $2.4 trillion worth of assets have now agreed to withdraw their own resolution and back the bank s plans.
HSBC said it will phase out the financing of coal-fired power and thermal coal mining in markets across the EU and the OECD by 2030 and in all other markets by 2040.
