| Climate change brings unprecedented challenges for humankind. The Swedish government has an ambitious agenda for decreasing the GHG emissions. One way is to mobilize private investments. Today, the ordinary investor ability to measure and compare the extent of fund managers sustainability efforts is limited. The Swedish government has launched an investigation with the aim to address this issue. Mr. Bolund will explore this and other issues related to the financial markets and climate change.If you are not an LSE staff/student/associate (and therefore do not hold an LSE ID card), please email M.Absar@lse.ac.uk to register for security reasons.
