The Ratings Radar Show: so just what should go in an ESG fund?
Tuesday, 19 April, 2022
Should funds banking on clean energy be whiter than white? Or do they need to spread their net wider? The question of how Europe transitions to clean energy sources has never been more pressing. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has shone the spotlight on how and where we source the gas and oil to keep wheels turning and houses warm – not to mention reducing our dependency on the stuff over the longer term to keep the planet from overheating. Which is why Frank Talbot looks this week at fund manager Suzanne Senellart who runs the huge Europe Environmental Equity fund for Mirova, a boutique dedicated to ESG funds. Along with Nisha Long and Angus Foote, we take a deep dive into what should and shouldn’t go into such funds (Tech companies? Mining giants that extract the materials we’ll need to build the green infrastructure?). Piotr Kuszneruk produces the show. And with that, it’s goodbye from us at the Citywire Ratings Radar Show. After two years and 42 editions, we’re calling it a wrap. Thank you so much for listening – we hope you enjoyed it all as much as we did.
