Climate change investing: net zero considerations


1 Nov 2021

Paul LaCoursiere, Global Head of ESG Investments, explores key considerations related to climate investing and the path to net zero.

Key takeaways:

  • Climate change requires immediate action, but we believe there may be unintended consequences of certain approaches that could be underappreciated.
  • Capital markets and asset managers have a clear role to play in the transition to net zero and should be coupled with strong action at a government policy and taxation level if intended outcomes are to be delivered.
  • Net zero commitments could have trade-offs at an individual portfolio level and it is important these are well understood.
