Debates with the industry leaders that allow to share best practice, exchange opinions, discuss future trends, key challenges and solutions. Please join the conversation. (contact www.esgnexus.com/contact)

The global Data Center market is at a pivotal inflexion point— Rapid digitisation, the rise of AI, and cloud adoption are fuelling unprecedented demand for capacity. Yet, this growth comes with new layers of complexity – power and water constraints, critical metals availability, sustainability pressures, and shifting regulatory frameworks are reshaping how Data Centers are planned, financed and operated.

In this exclusive webinar with Moody’s Ratings, we’ll go beyond the headlines to explore the strategic and financial dynamics influencing the future of Data Centers.  
=> How are evolving computing needs and tenant requirements changing capacity planning and financing models? 
=> Where do the risks of overbuilding, lease renewals, and credit exposure emerge? 
=> And what role will sustainability considerations and energy reliability play in shaping long-term value?

Our Moody’s experts will share critical insights into:
=> Global Supply-Demand dynamics and the implications for energy reliability and resilience
=> Sustainability and regulatory impacts shaping investment flows
=> Credit and financing risks for developers, investors, and landlords
=> Strategies to align with tenant demand, manage exposure, and unlock growth opportunities

Whether you’re funding, developing, or investing in the Data Center ecosystem, this discussion will help you anticipate market shifts, navigate risks, and identify where the next wave of opportunities will emerge in this rapidly evolving sector.

Join us on 18 September at 3pm BST to hear directly from:
John Medina, SVP, Global Project & Infrastructure Group,
Celine Cherubin, VP, Senior Credit Officer, Infrastructure Finance,
Ramzi Kattan, VP, Senior Credit Officer, Corporate Finance,
Ram Sri, VP, Sustainable & Transition Finance,
as they guide us through critical trends, risks, and investment dynamics in today’s Data Center ecosystem.

Data Demand Meets Real-World Limits: What’s Next for the Data Center Market?

In a market defined by macroeconomic uncertainty, shifting regulatory landscapes, and rapidly evolving investor expectations, how do investors stay ahead without losing sight of sustainability goals?

The global green economy now represents nearly $8 trillion in market value and green revenues are topping $5 trillion. The opportunity is clear—but so are the challenges.

How do we navigate volatility while staying aligned with long-term climate goals?
What does the current data tell us about performance, risk, and resilience in sustainable investment strategies?
Where should we be looking next for growth?
Which sectors are showing true resilience—and which are falling behind, and why?
How should financial professionals reassess exposure, risk, and return in this space?
Are Climate adaptation solutions an emerging industry?
Join us for a timely and insightful discussion based on the latest LSEG report: “Investing in the Green Economy 2025 – Navigating Volatility and Disruption” – with the author Jaakko Kooroshy - Global Head, Sustainable Investment Research, London Stock Exchange Group
Moderated by Dana Hanby - Managing Director - ESG Nexus

Investing in the Green Economy 2025 - Navigating Volatility and Disruption

In an industry where performance metrics, regulatory demands, and stakeholder expectations constantly evolve, we are challenged to rethink what it truly means to lead with integrity
=> Can a company truly drive impact without first getting its own house in order? 
=> What happens when well-meaning corporate narratives get ahead of real action? 
=> In a world where we see ESG box-ticking and shifting expectations, how do leaders avoid overreach, stay focused, and still remain accountable?
=>    How do we build cultures that are a genuine source of strategic advantage? 
=> And are we, perhaps inadvertently, undermining the very systems—political, environmental, social—we claim to support?
These and many more questions we will discuss with 
Alison Taylor – Clinical Professor at NYU Stern School of Business, Member of the Unilever Sustainability Advisory Council, and author of Higher Ground: How Businesses Can Do the Right Thing in a Turbulent World, named Best Business Book of 2024 by the Financial Times
And Dr. Katrin Guelden Le Marie – Leadership Advisor and Independent Researcher with a focus on governance, social and corporate cohesion
Moderated by Dana Hanby, Managing Director, ESG Nexus.

How can businesses do the right thing in a turbulent world?

Sustainable finance has transformed from a niche concept tied to responsible investment into a mainstream force shaping global markets. Spanning sectors, jurisdictions, and financial segments, it now influences a wide range of products, services, and regulatory initiatives. But how far have we come—and where are we headed next?

We will explore key trends and themes that have shaped sustainable finance over time. What has been achieved, and what challenges remain?

How can we address barriers to further progress?
How uniform is the impact of regulation across financial market participants?
What are the latest EU regulatory developments, and how are they shaping the industry?
What is the role of market authorities in sustainable finance,
How can products and services play a role in accelerating sustainable finance?
We will delve into these and many more questions and explore what’s next for ESG and sustainable finance in conversation with Martina Macpherson,FICRS, PhD;  Head of ESG Product Strategy & Management with SIX Financial Information; Chair, Sustainability Products and Services Council, SIX Group;  and Consultative Member, Sustainability Standards Committee, ESMA.

Exploring the Evolution and Future of Sustainable Finance

The financial sector is at the heart of Europe’s green transition, with sustainability regulations shaping investment decisions, risk assessments, and corporate strategies. The EU’s proposed Omnibus Package aims to simplify and harmonise sustainability reporting, reducing administrative burdens on businesses. But at what cost?

While some welcome this move as a boost to competitiveness, others fear it could weaken transparency and accountability, undermining investor confidence in ESG-driven finance.

=> Will this reform create a more efficient regulatory landscape, or does it risk diluting the high sustainability standards that underpin responsible investing?
=> What are the opportunities hidden within these reforms?
=> Could the changes improve the bankability of sustainable projects and encourage financial institutions to take a more active role in climate financing?
=> What concerns have been raised by investors and industry bodies?
=> What does the Omnibus package actually mean for the Financial Sector?
Join us on Wednesday, 19th March, as we unpack the implications of the Omnibus Package, with
Anne Schoemaker, Senior Director of ESG Product Management at Morningstar Sustainalytics, who is also recognised as one of the 'Top 50 Women in Sustainable Finance, Netherlands’. 
For more than three decades, Sustainalytics has worked to help investors put the promise of sustainable investing to work: with data, research, ratings and analytics solutions that are easily understood, intuitive to apply and impactful for everyone.

The EU Omnibus Package – A Game Changer or a Setback for Sustainable Finance?

The EU’s Action Plan on Digitising the Energy System has marked a bold move to bridge digital innovation and sustainability. Digitisation is positioned to play a vital role in advancing Europe’s Net Zero ambitions, offering tools to make energy use smarter, processes more efficient, and renewables integrated more seamlessly. Technologies like smart grids, IoT-enabled monitoring, and data-driven insights promise to help industries and cities cut carbon emissions and optimise resources.
 
However, there’s a hidden cost. Today’s global digital industry consumes enough water, materials, and energy to give it an environmental footprint nearly three times that of the UK. Digital tech currently uses 10% of the world’s electricity and contributes close to 4% of global CO₂ emissions—almost double that of civil aviation – and the energy demands of data centres and digital infrastructure are growing.  
 
So, on the way towards a twin – green and digital – future:
=> How do we account for the new risks and how do we balance risks with the benefits that digitisation brings? 
=> How much physical space is taken up by the digital world and are new communication networks compatible with the ecological transition?
=> Can smart cities truly become sustainable, and what are early projects telling us?
=> How do we deal with the e-waste?
=> Do we properly account for the algo-trading and passive funds? 
 
Join us for a conversation with Guillaume Pitron, an award-winning journalist, documentary writer and director, and best-selling author of “The Dark Cloud: How the Digital World is Costing the Earth” and The Rare Metals War: The Dark Side of Clean Energy and Digital Technologies” With nearly thirty French and international accolades, Guillaume provides a clear-eyed look into the ecological stakes of the digital age.

The EU's Twin – Digital and Green – Transformation. Are We Succeeding?

As global challenges surrounding climate change, carbon reduction, biodiversity and the broader Sustainable Development Goals intensify, the demand for technology-driven, data-enabled sustainable solutions has never been higher. Investing in innovative businesses at early-stage and at scale-up infection points is essential to building a sustainable future. These companies can bring fresh perspectives and agile approaches that can potentially lead to groundbreaking technologies. Early-stage businesses are also able to explore niche areas and high-risk concepts that larger companies may avoid, pushing the sustainability market into new frontiers.
For investors, backing these innovators doesn’t just foster rapid environmental impact; it creates a cycle where emerging ideas and sustainable practices flourish and scale, accelerating our path toward global sustainability goals. However, is innovation within the investment mechanism itself also required?
 
·    Is the investment world keeping pace with the urgency of climate challenges?
·    Which sectors in the sustainability space are attracting the most investment, and what emerging areas are beginning to gain momentum?
·     What are the unique hurdles early-stage companies face when raising investment?
·      As the space matures, what innovative investment mechanisms are evolving, and how can businesses effectively position themselves for growth, acquisition, or liquidity events?
 
From understanding market timing for M&A to avoiding common exit mistakes, this session is designed to provide investors and founders with actionable insights into navigating the evolving landscape of sustainability-focused investing.

Evolving Landscape of Sustainable Investing

The global shift toward energy transition and digitisation is reshaping industries and economies at an unprecedented pace. At the heart of this transformation lies an often-overlooked factor: critical metals. From powering renewable energy technologies like solar panels and wind turbines to fueling the digital revolution through electric vehicles, smart grids, smartphones, and data centers, these metals—such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earth elements—are essential. As demand for cleaner energy and advanced technology surges, so does our reliance on these finite resources, making the race for critical metals a crucial aspect of the future economy and sustainability efforts.
• But given the pace of the energy transition, how prepared is the supply chain to handle potential bottlenecks?  
• How sustainable are current mining practices for critical metals?
• What measures are being taken to ensure long-term access to critical metals in a way that aligns with global sustainability goals? 
• What are the risks for investors? 
Join our conversation with a researcher at the French Institute for International and Strategic Affairs (IRIS) and an author of a renowned international bestseller - "The Rare Metals War - The Dark Side of Clean Energy and Digital Technologies"  - Guillaume Pitron—an award-winning journalist, documentary writer and director, with nearly thirty French and international awards to his name. Guillaume’s work has earned him invitations to speak at prestigious global institutions, including the IMF, European Commission, UNESCO, INSEAD, and the French Senate. He’s also a regular voice in international media outlets like Le Monde, the BBC, Bloomberg TV, The Financial Times, TDEx , and many others

The Hidden Risks of Rare Metals in the Energy Transition

Across the global sustainable finance landscape, labelled bonds provide an important mechanism for financing the growth of a ‘green economy’ and help investors align their portfolios with sustainability goals globally.
Green, Social, and Sustainable Bonds’ outstanding level has grown to over 100 times the size it was 10 years ago and has surpassed $ 4 trillion in 2024. But as the volumes of Labelled Bonds continue to grow, so is the debate about the drivers behind the demand for their issuance, and the existence of premium for the label (so-called “Greenium”).
The process for issuing Labelled Bonds tends to be rather complex – as they need to demonstrate their “green” (or other labels) credentials; impact; include rigorous reporting; and second-party opinions. So can Issuers pass on these additional costs?
Is there a premium for the green label – so-called “Greenium”?
Is there a noticeable enough impact of Greenium?
What are some data challenges with reporting on the Use of Proceeds?
What are the global trends of labelled bond issuance over the last few years in various geographies and segments?
What is the regulatory impact on labelled bonds across Europe, North America and Asia Pacific?
 
We will explore these and many more questions with our panellists, who represent a cross-section of the ecosystem, on the presence of Greenium or lack thereof:
 
Girish Narula, Head of Sustainable Finance, ICE Data Services
Josephine Richardson, MD, Head of Research, Anthropocene Fixed Income Institute
Jason Mortimer, Head of Sustainable Investment, Fixed Income, Nomura Asset Management
Marianne Zangerl, Head of ESG, Fixed Income, Abrdn
Moderated by Dana Hanby, Managing Director, ESG Nexus

Labelled Bonds - Greenium - fact or fiction?

An upswing of data that suggests that there is a relationship between the financial performance of a portfolio and sustainability led to increased interest of investors in ESG funds. As the evidence compiled, there has been more and more pressure put on companies to disclose what are their risks and opportunities related to ESG. The concerted effort of policymakers, standards setters, and regulators helps to increase standardisation – but can an ESG Fund that uses standardised data outperform? Theoretically, standardised data should be already priced in. And what exactly do we mean, when we say an “ESG Fund” when discussing if it outperforms (or underperforms)? And does an improvement in the ESG fund’s performance reflect an improvement in the environmental factors in the real economy, considering that climate metrics can be influenced not only by the actual emissions of companies in the portfolio, but by portfolio managers’ decisions, and other financial variables? Changes to the weight in the portfolio or companies’ enterprise values will impact a climate-related investment strategy but may do little to reduction of emissions in the real economy. The result can be similar in the implementation of a divestment strategy.
What Climate/ESG metrics do you use to assess and monitor your portfolio?
Can you achieve alpha through ESG?
Does your Carbon Footprinting attribution reflect what is happening in the real economy?
Will the data that you are using stand up to audit?
 
These and many more questions we will discuss with Guido Giese, MSCI’s Global Head of Research for ESG and Climate Solutions, who leads applied research and thought leadership on ESG integration and impact and climate investing.

Alpha in ESG

Business decisions taken today will impact not only the ability to transition to Net-Zero, but also the ability to properly address the Physical Climate risks. As the physical impacts of Climate Change increase in severity and frequency, the resulting losses related to the cost of damage to physical assets and lost revenues could be significant. The need for insights into how physical climate change may impact corporate assets and investments is clear. Investors require granular data to be able to make informed financial decisions and remain competitive. They must consider a range of mechanisms through which physical climate risks impact their investment across the value chain globally. They are also required to disclose their exposure to physical and transition risks. 
- But, what data and tools are available for investors and corporations to assess their exposure to physical climate risks? 
- What is the quality and the reliability of this data? & what is it exactly that these metrics cover (and what they do not cover?)
- What are the most exposed sectors to physical climate risk?
- Can we benchmark companies for Asset Damage Risk, Productive Capacity Loss, High Risk Assets and other metrics? 
- How does physical risk differ across the regions…and are there any ‘surprises’ there? 
- How do the risks change depending on scenarios used for the assessment & And what RCP scenarios should be used? 
Please join our conversation with Toby Messier, MD, Director, Commercialisation, Physical Risk at Morningstar, to explore these and many more questions.

Physical Climate Risk to Corporate Assets and Investment Portfolios

Launched in 2019, the UK’s Green Finance Strategy aims to establish the UK as a centre for international green finance and to align the financial sector and capital flows with the delivery of global and domestic climate and environmental objectives. The implementation of Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR) forms a major part of the strategy and aims at addressing the information gap for market participants, ensuring a flow of decision-useful sustainability information, and improving transparency. Market participants, however, have been waiting for the publication of the sustainability disclosure rules by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), who postponed it twice, likely due to the volume and complexity of consultation feedback and potentially “suboptimal” interrelationship with other regimes – eg. European and US regulations.
What is the latest on the UK’s SDR ?
How does it relate to SFDR, ISSB, and the SEC’s climate disclosure rule?
Will it eliminate ‘greenwashing”? …and what about “green-hashing”?
What does it mean for both international and the UK’s Financial Sector and Corporations?

Even though it feels that Governance was with us “forever”, until 2021 there was no international benchmark for good corporate governance. Earlier this year (on 28th June), we discussed with Carolynn Chalmers – co-editor of ISO 37000 and the CEO of the Good Governance Academy – the principles of ISO37000 on Governance; how ISO37000 addresses Sustainability and Double Materiality; the role of data in governance; and went into greater detail of ISO37000 and why it matters to leaders. 
(this discussion is available on demand https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/18712/586965?utm_source=DanaHanby&utm_medium=brighttalk&utm_campaign=586965) 
This is however a dynamic space and at the G20 Summit on 9-10 September, G20 and OECD launched the revised Corporate Governance Principles, which in the words of the OECD Secretary General “mark a significant, renewed international consensus and strong desire from all OECD and G20 Members to strengthen guidance on companies’ sustainability and resilience, to help them support the green transition and adapt to climate risks”. 
Vice-Minister of Finance for International Affairs who chaired the revision added that “The Principles aim to help companies access financing from capital markets, protect investors, and make companies, and hence economies, more resilient. 

- What are the revised G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance
- Who are they for?
- How do they differ from ISO 37000 Principles? 
- What are ISO 37004 and ISO 37006 – and should you know about them?

Spotlight on Governance in ESG – G20/OECD Principles

“Why are we wasting most of the energy and food in the world?”
Why can’t renewables and vegetables save the world?
Why is what we are doing making things worse?"
These are just a few questions asked by Jonathan Maxwell in his recently published book “The Edge”. Many people now know that seven of nine planetary boundaries have been surpassed by humans. In this urgent situation, businesses and governments have been committing to Net Zero, yet few had a chance to map out exactly what such commitments mean in practice. In the meantime, about 70% of the world’s energy, 50% of food, and 30% of water are being wasted in the “cradle-to-grave cycles”. 
We need many solutions to get to Net Zero, but how do you set priorities to ensure that we get there “in time”? And how do you direct your investment? 
“The Edge” seeks to establish a framework to explain what is happening in the world today. And the author, Jonathan Maxwell, will share with us what he has learnt about the mindsets of government, big business and finance at times when the realisation of what it means to get to Net Zero puts a rift in the consensus of how to get there. 
Jonathan, who trained at Oxford University as a modern historian and has become a professional investor, put everything on the line to follow his conviction. In 2007, he set up Sustainable Development Capital LLP (SDCL) and is the CEO of this independent investment firm with over two billion of investment capital. 
- How is his conviction reflected in his investment strategy?
- How does he stay true to his conviction at times of raising interest rates, inflation, and price shocks in commodities? 
- How does he consider supply chain interactions in his investments? 
- Why does he feel that the way we talk about climate and the environment can backfire?
These and many more questions we will explore with Jonathan Maxwell, CEO and Founder of SDCL, and author of the book  “The Edge”.

Investing on “THE EDGE”

Insurance is a crucial part of the capital stack; nothing gets invested unless it is insured. As such, Insurance has not only an important role to play in helping other forms of capital (debt and equity) be deployed but can also powerfully influence corporates in their transition to become more sustainable.
The insurance industry has a significant exposure to climate change, most obviously through more frequent or intense weather events, but also increasingly through management and profession liabilities. 
Regulatory headwinds made many Insurers exit Net-Zero Insurance Alliance (NZIA), and re-consider their value proposition in some regions.
• So how do Insurers pursue decarbonisation goals?
• What is the impact of regulation on Insurers?
• How can Insurers transfer risks and which markets do they enter/exit?
• What new products are being developed?
• What is the need for new technologies and ESG data?
These and many other questions we will explore with our excellent panel:

ESG in Insurance

A Conversation with Carolynn Chalmers – editor of ISO 37000 on Governance

Incidents that lead to significant downgrades in ESG ratings or a dramatic fall in the share price of some corporations are often related to Governance. Breaches of Environmental and Social commitments are also likely linked to inadequate Governance. Yet often the “G” of the ESG seems to be taken for granted, maybe because it ‘predates’ Environmental and Social risks and key governance indicators may cover information that is already included in the corporate disclosure. 
- However, what constitutes good Governance? 
- What is the nature and role of Governance within the ESG framework?
- What is the guidance of ISO 37000 on Governance?
- How does it work with national codes and standards and what does it mean for multinational companies?
- What are the governance metrics in ESG?
- How are stakeholders’ views accounted for?

Spotlight on “Governance” in ESG

Biodiversity loss was one of the top three risks identified in the World Economic Forum’s 2022 Global Risk Report. The risks are getting the attention of regulators, policymakers, and public and private market participants, however, biodiversity risk incidents are still rising and not many companies have actually undertaken materiality assessments on environmental risks beyond climate change. Even though already 6 years ago, the world’s most significant forums for the promotion of biodiversity conservation concluded that “current public funding was far less than that required to support effective conservation action globally. [And...] enhanced private-sector engagement was desperately needed” (*), the progress on biodiversity finance appear to be still elusive. “Like the financial crisis, the tragedy on the horizon represents a crisis of valuation and values.”(**) The list of challenges to account for biodiversity in business models appear to be long, in the meantime "it is only once the rainforest is cleared and a cattle herd or soya plantation is placed on the newly opened land that the Amazon region begins to have market value. The cost to the climate and biodiversity of destroying rainforest appear on no ledger”. (**)

-       Do current business models support biodiversity conservation?
-       What is the current status quo for private-sector engagement in biodiversity?  
- Can Markets provide a solution? 
- What are the latest recommendations of TNFD? 
- What approach do companies and the Financial Sector take to prevent biodiversity loss?
These and many more questions we will discuss with our excellent panel
Tanya Dos Santos – Global Head of Sustainability - Investec 
Robert Fletcher – Professor, Sociology of Development and Change, Wageningen University & Author of “Failing Forward – The Rise and Fall of Neoliberal Conservation”
Paul Roper – Head of Project & Funding Delivery; Lee Valley Regional Park Authority
Sonny Duijn - Thematic Economist - ABN AMRO

Biodiversity loss – do we have the right business models to prevent it?

Investors have become increasingly concerned about the risks of companies with poor ESG performance. Such companies could become very hard to sell and adversely affect the financial performance of a portfolio. Competitive positioning and public perceptions may be affected along the way. Wouldn't therefore be useful to have a database of companies that have been excluded by Pension Funds, Asset Managers, Insurance companies and Banks? It would provide not only much-needed transparency but could also put additional pressure on those identified companies to change their practices.
A new website launched last month by a coalition of NGOs provides exactly that – a list of companies that are blacklisted by investors. It also includes a classification of reasons for the exclusions.
To date, the tracker lists a total of 4532 companies that have been excluded by 87 Financial Institutions in 16 countries. The most common reason for exclusion is Climate/fossil fuels, followed by controversial weapons, and tobacco.
Kees Kodde – Project Lead Fair Finance International – and a co-author of the “Financial Exclusions Tracker” will show us how to use the tool. Please join us on Wednesday 13th December at 3:30 pm GMT to learn more about the FINANCIAL EXCLUSIONS TRACKER
