Climate and sustainability objectives have become central components of future-oriented financial planning for asset owners and managers.
Leading asset management firms are progressively adjusting their approaches to achieve net zero portfolios by 2050.
Implementing net zero strategies at each investment cycle stage is not just beneficial to the planet.
It can also help identify new investment opportunities, climate-related risks, and decarbonization levers, that, in turn, can help cut costs within the portfolio.
