Green Equities 2017







Environmental Finance in association with the City of London Corporation presents a one-day conference on Green Equities.

The shift towards a low-carbon economy is gathering pace, creating both opportunities and risks for investors.

This event will hear from high-profile investors in both listed equities and private equity, who will share their insights on the risk and return characteristics of sustainable stocks, their efforts to decarbonise their portfolios, and look at how the investment universe might be impacted by the changing policy landscape.

Delegates will learn about the latest trends and the drivers set to shape green equity investments.
