Climate models and investing: what’s the issue?

With talk of climate change all around us – stoked recently by the news that May was the twelfth month in a row with global record-breaking temperatures – Senior Sustainable Investment Consultants Clare Keeffe and Jordan Griffiths hosted a webinar that looked to outline the role it has to play in the world of investments.

Specifically, the webinar looked at climate modelling, and the many myths that surround it. No doubt by now you have picked up the sentiment around climate modelling in 2024 – namely, that it is viewed as being unreliable when it comes to investment strategy planning.

In the below 30-minute webinar, we examine:

• the issues surrounding current climate modelling;
• the concerns of asset owners and asset managers, including pension schemes; and
• how such models can be made more decision-useful for investors, allowing for strategic investment decisions to be made.
