Gerrit Dubois of DPAM will present a practical approach to climate risk assessment.
In recent years, environmental considerations have become a staple of the investor discourse. Yet the practical reality of climate risk assessment can still be daunting and confusing at times. How can investors effectively identify, assess and mitigate the climate risk of their portfolios and investees? And how can they leverage the resulting findings to take their investments to the next level? Gerrit will expand on all key steps of our proprietary climate risk assessment method, ranging from the initial point of risk identification to the final output of our models, and our proactive approach to dealing with these results.
Giulia Guidi of Next Energy Capital will present and take questions on the subject of sustainable energy infrastructure at our upcoming ESG expert panel webcast on 24 January 2022. Specifically she will talk about what ESG means for a solar PV and Renewable Energy infra investors; What a good ESG process should have (how good looks like); How to balance between materiality and the increased mandatory reporting requirements.
Elizabeth Levy of Trillium Asset Management will speak regarding the Net Zero Asset Managers (NZAM) initiative, which is an international group of asset managers committed to supporting the goal of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner, and explore how it will affect investment portfolios. Elizabeth will also highlight the importance of shareholder advocacy, and discuss how asset managers can engage with companies held in their portfolios to press for positive change on ESG policies, performance, or impact.
