Pivotal questions for investors to ask
Our expertise
Some of the key tools and approaches used by the financial sector to address climate change have historically focused on “not doing” certain things, whether they be removing portfolio exposures through exclusion, or divesting, to name just a few.
While all these activities send a message, help create awareness and lead to acceptance, their real-world impact on decarbonization has limitations.
Our approach
We believe this transition represents an enormous opportunity that allows our clients to play a more meaningful part in solving the climate crisis. To meet climate targets, highly pollutive legacy sectors must decarbonize, or transition.
Our society is dependent on carbon-intensive industries: materials, utilities, agriculture that must participate in the energy transition.
The market has had a tendency to overlook these industries, favoring already green sectors. As a result, these transitioning companies often trade at discounted valuations.
We see a potentially exciting investment opportunity unlocked by encouraging carbon intensive companies to accelerate their decarbonization efforts.
