Significant returns and sustainable outcomes – Europe has the edge
ESG has come to the forefront of investing, and nowhere more so than in Europe – rightly so given our concerns over the environment and heightened awareness of social and governance issues. No longer should this be seen as an alternative to strong financial returns. Focused ESG research can unearth robust commercial benefits and new and growing sources of exceptional profitability – and Europe has a head start over other areas.

It has been a tumultuous start to 2022, with the tragic Russia/Ukraine conflict not only reminding us of the fragility of life, but also, as investment professionals, focusing our thoughts on the global nature of the world, financial and energy security, inflation and interconnectedness. At the same time, we cannot forget that the planet is facing a global climate emergency.
In Europe this has seen the publication of the EU’s Fit for 55 roadmap to ensure its climate and energy laws fit the ambition of a 55% cut in emissions by 2030, which could become law this year.
Experts from Vlerick Business School and Columbia Threadneedle will give you insights into what all of this means, the sustainable themes that have emerged as a result, and how portfolio managers can go about stocking picking in Europe and beyond to take advantage of these opportunities.
