2022 saw the bond bubble burst as central banks hiked rates amid runaway inflation. Meanwhile floods, droughts and storms provided evidence of ongoing climate change, and a reminder of the importance of the transition to net zero.

Given that bonds have repriced, is now a good time to enter the fixed income market? Which bonds are attractive? And is it possible to play a part in the fight against climate change by investing in the asset class?

Join us to find out why we’re positive about the return potential within fixed income, and the opportunities to invest in decarbonisation.

Breakfast briefing: Fixed Income - Is the environment positive for fixed income?

Finally, we all know that robust sustainability reporting is essential in today’s investment world. Our presenters will invite you to take a closer look at the team’s comprehensive reporting capabilities, and conclude with news on assets under management and investment flows. 

As always, this regular webcast will be interactive, with the opportunity for you to submit discussion points and ask questions. 

You will also be able to download your CPD certificate and a copy of the presentation from the attachments following the event.

abrdn MyFolio TeamTalks

The Climate Action series webinar on 'Mobilising private finance: Can COP28 deliver more than COP27?' took place on Wednesday 1 February 2023.
We were delighted to have been joined by such an esteemed list of speakers and panelists. We've summarised some of the key topics and themes here:
• Private finance from asset managers and owners has a vital role to play in accelerating the energy transition and helping communities justly adapt to physical climate change.
• Private finance is not a panacea and cannot substitute for inadequate government action to appropriately regulate emitting activities and incentivise the creation of climate solutions.
• After a disappointing COP27, COP28 will be a critical test case for the global community’s ability to translate promises into concrete, credible action to close the ambition, credibility, justice and ambition gaps that are still far too large.

Mobilising private finance: Can COP28 deliver more than COP27?

For investors, 2023 holds many questions and the outlook remains uncertain. Economic growth in developed markets looks challenged, while headline inflation has started to dissipate, core inflation shows signs of persistence and central banks continue to be hawkish in their outlook.

Is this the right time for your clients to seize opportunities in today’s uncertain markets? Please join us to find out.

abrdn MyFolio TeamTalks: looking back at 2022

If there’s a space for the next round of unicorn companies, it’s more than likely to be in the climate technology sector. The rapid rise of electric vehicle companies, plant-based meat, and renewable energy indicate that the era of climate unicorns might have already begun. 

Investors with an interest in the principles of ESG and an eye to the future are well positioned to be at the forefront of this seismic shift in the way we move, eat, and produce energy. But is this climate based boom another dot-com bubble, or something more sustainable? 

In Episode 14 of the ESG Innovation Hub, we’ll dive deep into the ‘E’ of ESG, and the rewards and pitfalls of climate technology investing as the sector moves toward a possible unicorn era. 

Join the session to explore

-The history of ESG-based investment in climate technology
-The current landscape of climate technology unicorns
-How investors can evaluate potential green unicorns
-What red flags to look out for when making climate technology investments
-And more

Climate Technology Unicorns - Fairytale or Future?
