With the earth on track for its hottest year on record, and the COP28 summit due to open later in November, we’ve devoted this month’s CIO call to climate change.

During the episode, Sonja Laud, LGIM’s Chief Investment Officer, is joined by Nick Stansbury, Head of Climate Solutions; and Stephen Beer, a senior manager within our Investment Stewardship team. The speakers discuss:

What we expect from the global climate summit due to take place in the UAE
What investors can do to bring about a net-zero outcome
Our approach to encouraging companies to tackle climate change
How the Israel-Hamas conflict has impacted energy markets
The broader market outlook, given the recent bounce in risk assets

The podcast was recorded on 23 November and is moderated by Max Julius, Head of Content.
