How to maximise returns in a changing climate 
 

  

About Climate Invest 2007    

No longer the ethical edge of investing, climate change consideration is now bottom-line. The transition from this understanding to actual asset allocation decisions represents a profoundly important challenge for asset-owners today.   
    
Why Climate Invest 2007?  
Climate Invest 2007 is your opportunity to ensure that your investment portfolio can not only adapt to the new risks posed, but also take advantage of the emerging opportunities. 
  
This landmark event has been written with the guidance of over 80 asset-owners; drawing the focus away from 'traditional' SRI and towards a focus driven by returns.

Speaker of the week:
   
John Greenwood, CalPERS
John is currently a Portfolio Manager in the AIM department at CalPERS where he has responsibility for a number of core portfolio holdings as well as oversight of the CleanTech (Alternative Energy) and European middle market buyout portfolios.
 
At Climate Invest John will be providing one of two case studies on clean tech investing. The other is from European giants PGGM.

3 key reasons you need to attend:

  1. Climate change is already impacting upon your existing portfolio - understand how to adapt, from trustee to CIO to portfolio manager
      
  2. The world's leading investors have made their first steps - hear what worked for them and what they would do differently in your shoes 
      
  3. New investment opportunities have emerged that you should know about - from clean tech and carbon, from to ethanol to sustainable forestry
