Investors can’t reduce decarbonisation discussions to investment in renewables, as some vital economic sectors need to be set on the right path.
This is according to Wim Van Hyfte, global head of ESG investments and research at Candriam, who said tackling fossil fuels will have a massive knock-on effect on the energy sector at large.
'[Energy] is so crucial to the economic structure that you can’t just unplug fossil fuels from our systems,’ he said.
Also in this podcast Van Hyfte talks about his expectations from the COP26 conference and how investors should approach climate challenges from the overall asset allocation perspective.
