The third in our trilogy of keynote presentations on the Earth's "Life Pillars" explains why climate-related risks and opportunities should be important considerations for investors with regard to long-term portfolio development.

 

Atmosphere refers to the various atmospheric layers that envelop the planet and create conditions that are the foundation for life on Earth. The burning of fossil fuels as an energy source has been crucial for economic growth but has also increased the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere, leading to dramatic climate change. Achieving Net Zero Emissions will require renewable energy to be expanded on an unprecedented scale in order to decouple economic growth from carbon emissions.

 

All three Life Pillars are essential to understanding ESG. We therefore encourage you to take a look at our existing CIO keynote presentations on Land and Ocean as well.

In Europe, Middle East and Africa as well as in Asia Pacific this material is considered marketing material, but this is not the case in the U.S. No assurance can be given that any forecast or target can be achieved. Forecasts are based on assumptions, estimates, opinions and hypothetical models which may prove to be incorrect. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. Performance refers to a nominal value based on price gains/losses and does not take into account inflation. Inflation will have a negative impact on the purchasing power of this nominal monetary value. Depending on the current level of inflation, this may lead to a real loss in value, even if the nominal performance of the investment is positive. Investments come with risk. The value of an investment can fall as well as rise and you might not get back the amount originally invested at any point in time. Your capital may be at risk.
