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.
