Investing for Tomorrow’s Environment

We’re in a time of immense change. Establishing criteria for sustainable investment decision-making is critical as we transition to new energy systems and enter the fourth industrial revolution. Green funds, climate bonds, and sustainable investing are all gaining in popularity, and investment professionals now need to apply a climate lens to all aspects of the investment process.

Launched in June 2024, Investing for Tomorrow’s Environment is a wide-ranging digital series exploring the pivotal role of investment professionals in unlocking solutions to climate change, moving to a low-carbon green economy and driving transformational change.

Created in partnership with CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) UK, the series premiered on May 2 in London.

Through a diverse array of future-focused content, including expert interviews and real-world case studies from the UK, Denmark, the Netherlands, Serbia and the US, Investing for Tomorrow’s Environment meets the inspiring organisations and thought leaders who are powering the sector’s ESG transformation and accelerating the transition to net zero.

The series sheds light on the crucial role of the investment community in catalysing change, transforming industries, and tackling our toughest global challenges through capital allocations and stewardship. This includes advancing sustainable business models, renewable energy projects, and climate-aligned technologies.

Exploring the urgent need to integrate sustainability and ESG considerations into investment decision-making, the series champions progress in areas such as transition and green finance, impact investing, ESG data and sustainability reporting, green and climate bonds, ESG funds, and policy and regulation.
