Referat RobecoSAM
Tuesday, 21. January 2020, 12:00 - 12:45 UHR
Seminarraum III
English
Speaker(s): Jacob Messina
The session will cover Robeco and RobecoSAM’s holistic view to assessing the threat that global warming poses to their investments. This starts with decarbonization and potential integration of indirect “scope 3” emissions, which are underreported and often not used by investors. But for active managers, the footprint of the portfolio does not indicate the actual risks of the individual holdings. Transition risks and opportunities must also be assessed, as well as physical risks which are increasing rapidly.
