This week, Nigel Timperley talks to Shyam Gharial from LCP’s responsible investment team. They explore how ESG has evolved from a simple risk-management framework into a proactive tool for enabling real-world change, moving beyond "clean" portfolios to actively financing the transition in hard-to-abate sectors.
The episode covers:
- Why ESG is a rational tool for gaining a fuller understanding of investments rather than a political or moral overlay.
- Systemic risks and the "E, S, and G": Unpacking the material risks of poor governance and the systemic threats posed by climate change and social inequality.
- The shift from "low carbon" to "transition enablers"
- The future of responsible investing
