Investing in the Net Zero Economy

Join this event for a dynamic and solutions-focused masterclass during London Climate Action Week, where we will explore how the net zero economy is evolving—and where the next wave of investment opportunities lies.

Despite mounting global geopolitical challenges, the net zero economy continues to gain momentum. In the UK, it is growing at more than three times the rate of the wider economy. This session will examine what’s driving that growth both locally and globally, and highlight actionable insights for asset owners seeking to align with climate goals while delivering long-term value.

Discussion highlights will include:

Asset Owner Perspectives: The London Pensions Fund Authority (LPFA) will share their approach to aligning with the Paris Aligned Asset Owners Initiative (PAAOI), including how geopolitical turbulence informs their decision-making and supports their increased allocations to environmental solutions.

Private Markets & Natural Capital: SAIL Ventures will provide insights into the power of financial structuring in tackling deforestation and biodiversity loss, the use of directional KPIs to shape company behaviours, and the role of sustainability covenants in ensuring long-term impact.

Top-down & Bottom-up Analysis: Drawing on new research by Isio, we’ll look across asset classes to understand how geopolitical pressures are reshaping sustainability strategies and investor priorities.

Climate Innovation Trends: Pensions for Purpose will share findings from their impact-focused research, showcasing the latest innovations and where they believe the most promising opportunities for climate-aligned investing can be found.

Expect a thought-provoking and forward-looking conversation that brings together asset owners, managers, and sustainability experts committed to advancing the net zero transition through meaningful investment.
