"Those that best manage socio-economic and environmental impacts will be tomorrow's winners, counting both stakeholder and shareholder value. Today is the time to take competitive marketshare - for those companies that get this right." Recently I had a great fireside chat with Aleksandra Njagulj about ESG, and the need to evolve and instil more commercial pragmatism in the debate, at the ESG Adria Summit. I invite you to agree, disagree, or comment - let's keep the discussion going. #ESG #climatechange #licensetooperate #energy #infrastructure #sustainability

I am excited to join the the 7th Annual Sustainable Investment Forum Europe in Paris on the 2nd May, 2024. The Forum will bring together financiers and investors to debate sustainable practices across asset classes and portfolios and to discuss decarbonization challenge, as well as work around nature & biodiversity, adaptation, the Just Transition. I will be joining the panel on the role of policymakers in paving investors' path toward Net Zero. How can closer collaboration between public and private help us pivot and turn Net Zero ambition into action? #eib #netzero #justtransition #greendeal #lowcarbon https://lnkd.in/eNwrWVER

Did you know that considering ESG factors can enhance investment decision-making, mitigate risks, and drive long-term value creation? From renewable energy projects to sustainable port developments, investors have ample opportunities to align their portfolios with ESG principles while generating attractive returns. Globally, sustainable infrastructure investments, including those in the maritime sector, are projected to reach $2 trillion annually by 2030. At maritime conferences worldwide, industry leaders are emphasizing the importance of ESG integration, recognizing it as a crucial driver of sustainable growth and resilience in the sector. According to a recent report by the United Nations Global Compact, integrating ESG factors into maritime investment strategies can help address key industry challenges such as climate change, labor rights, and ethical governance. And the numbers speak for themselves - ESG-focused maritime investments are on the rise, indicating a paradigm shift towards more responsible and sustainable investment practices. In 2020 alone, sustainable investing in the maritime industry saw a 38% increase compared to the previous year, signaling a growing commitment to environmental and social responsibility within the sector. Given the increasing momentum behind ESG-focused maritime investments, how do you think this trend will continue to evolve in the coming years, and what impact might it have on the industry as a whole? #ESG #maritimeinvestments #maritimeindustry #sustainability

Environmental, social and governance issues are so firmly entrenched in today’s investment discourse that most companies consider integrating these factors in their daily and longer-term operations a top priority. abrdn say this evolution is critical in ensuring the world moves towards its net-zero carbon emissions targets by 2050 and meets the 17 UN sustainable development goals. #ESG #NetZero #PensionsforPurpose https://ow.ly/B2GN50RI4Iu

Some commentaries you can look forward to in the next few weeks: - Board leadership and its influence on the direction and acceleration of our sustainability/regenerative ambitions - Aligning Finance and ESG investment for sustainability and regeneration - Singapore's 30 by 30 food security initiative and its implications for ASEAN - Bolstering ASEAN Sustainability- The Biochar Revolution and Real-Time Verification While these commentaries are hardly groundbreaking, I do hope that they will create some conversation on how we can really align our focus towards working together for better clarity towards sustainability and regeneration. We have the expertise, technology, and experience to handle challenges, but how we constructively collaborate in a coordinated manner in this multi-faceted, multi-stakeholder challenge remains to be seen. With the support of illuminem.com and my fellow thought leaders, I know we can do better. #sustainability #regeneration #finance #boardleadership #foodsecurity #Singapore #ASEAN #sustainablefinance #ESG #thoughtleadership #commentary #illuminem #ReFi
