Throughout the last decade, investors have enjoyed favourable market returns across virtually all asset classes, driven generally by buoyant equity markets and underpinned by ultra-accommodative monetary policy. The challenges of the last 10 years – trade wars, Brexit and the COVID19 pandemic, have only served as blips in the prevailing rise of investment markets. Against this background, most philanthropic investors have experienced strong returns during a period of subdued inflation.
We encourage clients to undertake, where appropriate, a carbon-footprint analysis on investment portfolios as part of a broader assessment of exposure to climate policy risk, and then chart a course for alignment with global climate targets.
