The impact of the Gulf crisis on sustainable investment

The Gulf crisis looks like it will have a positive impact on sustainable and renewable investment. It appears almost certain to turn out to be the biggest single boost to investment in renewable energy that has yet occurred in this fast growing sector. It is also going to have a positive effect on regenerative agriculture.


Data centres: a growing environmental risk

The long term viability of large scale data centres is being questioned. The Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change has highlighted the presence of large hyperscale data centres within sustainable portfolios and the potential mismatch that this brings to investors’ climate targets.

Tokenisation take-off?

Tokenisation's adoption by the asset management industry has been steady rather than explosive. Over the next two to three years, the pace will almost certainly pick up substantially.

Renewable investing: another dotcom bubble?

Investment into all forms of clean energy, especially in renewables, is breaking records. Too much capital is now chasing too few investable projects.

Developing de-dollarisation

The US dollar's status as the world's reserve currency has been on a downward trend for a long time but it appears that the process may now be accelerating.
