ESG TALKS - The climate series: How corporates are addressing CO2 reduction

80% of the world’s biodiversity is found in the sea while 50% of our oxygen is produced by the oceans. With 3 billion dependent on the ocean economy for their livelihoods, and 90% of international trade transported by sea, the sustainability of our oceans is part of the foundation of a thriving society and ultimately human survival.

Yet, with a warming planet, the oceans’ effectiveness as a carbon sink is deteriorating. Oceans also face many other threats such as the destruction of coastal habitats, pollution and overfishing to name just a few.

Yet when it comes to investment in SDG14 “Life Below Water”, we find it falls short particularly compared to the other SDGs.  

The public and private sectors have responsibilities to address and solve these challenges. From giving legal rights to nature to understanding the financial materiality of the ocean economy. In this webinar, we will discuss investor possibilities for addressing the threats to our oceans and providing solutions to promote ocean sustainability.

Speakers: 
Matthias Kopp, Director of Sustainable Finance at WWF Germany

ESG TALKS - the climate series: ESG in Strategic Asset Allocation

The issue of sustainability is multifaceted. Climate is undoubtedly the most obvious and urgent task. Climate is also directly linked to social factors as it affects multiple areas of the economy, such as agricultural activity, food and water security, health effects, education and the security of livelihoods. In addition, the Covid-19 crisis has put a sharper focus on social aspects and specifically the support systems companies are providing to their staff, their suppliers and the communities within which they operate. Hence with good reason are institutional investors increasingly turning their attention also to the 'S' when it comes to sustainable investing.

We are delighted to invite you to participate in this webinar, together with Eurosif expert Victor van Hoorn, where we will provide insights on:
- The direction of travel for the sustainable finance industry in Europe and the pathway of regulation
- How will social investing impact corporates, asset managers and asset owners
- What investors can achieve not just in terms of financial returns but also in the ambition of encouraging companies to bring the S-factor into focus

Our speakers:
- Victor van Hoorn, Executive Director, Eurosif
- Nezhla Mehmed, Portfolio Manager Equity Active
- Michael Lewis, Head of Research ESG, DWS
- Olivier Souliac, Head of Index Strategy & Analytics, DWS

The webinar will run for 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session.

We look forward to your participation.

ESG TALKS - The social dimension of climate change

DWS Trend Talks sobre Perspectivas de Mercado (Mayo)

To secure the future of the world for generations to come, a shift to a greener economy is urgently needed. The EU has already set the path by pledging to achieve a net zero economy by 2050. All policy tools and regulations are being adapted to achieve this goal, including sustainable-finance regulation and disclosure requirements. These measures will lead to a green industrialization which represents the greatest economic and social transformation in 150 years.

We are delighted to invite you to a joint webinar between DWS and Eurosif with guest speakers from Generali, to cover the following questions:
• What role can finance play in shifting towards a more sustainable economic model? 
• How can investors achieve real-world impact through the companies in which they invest whilst generating alpha returns for their clients?
•  And how can asset owners influence capital allocation and send market signals to favor responsible investments?


Our speakers:
- Victor van Hoorn, Executive Director at Eurosif
- Alessandro Musto, Head of ESG Integration & Solutions at Generali Insurance Asset Management
- Xhois Hatibi, ESG Specialist & Impact investing at Generali Insurance Asset Management
- Antoniorosario Lovasco, Portfolio Manager Fenice 190 at Generali Insurance Asset Management
- Yoshiko Saito, Senior Product Specialist at DWS
- Alexia Giugni, Moderator, Country Head Italy at DWS

The webinar will run for 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session.

We look forward to your participation.

ESG TALKS - Energy matters. Investing to advance the green transition.

DWS Trend Talks sobre Perspectivas de Mercado (Abril)

Inflation rates are expected to rise even more than previously expected due to the sharp increase in energy prices and the recent Ukraine conflict. However, a recession in Europe could be avoided thanks to massive fiscal programs, including additional military spending, as well as private sector investment in energy infrastructure. 

Although we remain cautious on equities in the short term, we believe that markets could find a bottom in the coming months and then rise again, supported by persistently negative real yields and a recovery in the economy. Equities offer a real return component in the form of dividends, which may prove attractive in an environment of higher inflation, medium-term inflation uncertainties and a lack of viable alternatives.

Join our webinar where we will be discussing our outlook on equities and the latest performance of our DWS Invest Top Dividend fund which aims to invest in profitable, high-dividend companies. 

Speakers:
_Jarrid Klug, Equity Portfolio Manager
_Helge Staack, Senior Product Specialist Equities
_Baruc Fernández, DWS Sales and moderator

DWS Trend Talks about Dividend strategies

In the second session, we will focus on commodities outlook and its performance in uncertain environments such as the one we are living now due to the recent Russia - Ukraine conflict. We will see how including commodities in portfolios can enhance results.

Join the discussion with ours experts in DWS:

_Darwei Kung, DWS Portfolio Manager and Head of Commodities
_César Muro, DWS Iberia Head of Passive Sales
_Rafael Aldama, DWS Iberia Senior Sales as moderator

Real Asset session 2: Deep Dive into Commodities

DWS Trend Talks sobre Perspectivas de Mercado (Marzo)

In the first session, we will analyze the overall market of Real Asset and we will take a deep dive into two of the three assets that comprehend this space: we will concentrate on Infrastructure and Real Estate and how investors can protect themselves against high and accelerating inflation with them.

Join the discussion with ours experts in DWS:

_Deidra Coleman, DWS Senior Product Specialist, Liquid Real Assets
_Jana Rietow, DWS Product Specialist Liquid Real Assets
_Rafael Aldama, DWS Iberia Senior Sales as moderator

Real Asset session 1: How may benefit portfolios: Infrastructure and Real Estate

Several key drivers that have influenced the fixed income performances of 2021 are likely to impact markets also in 2022, as we have observed already in January.
 
Hence, floating rate notes remain in an attractive spot to help investors manage their duration exposure; and for those investors expecting a late-2022 rate hike from the ECB to bring their portfolio into position for a rise in yields.
 
Join this webinar with Oliver Albrecht, DWS Senior Product Specialist Fixed Income, and Carlos de Andrés, DWS Iberia Senior Sales as moderator, to learn the latest update on the DWS Floating Rate Notes strategies and discover how to navigate a changing rates environment.

We look forward to your participation
