FUTURE OF CAPITAL

Climate change risk is fast becoming a central part of government and corporate financial decision making. As the largest investors globally make significant changes to incorporate ESG considerations into their investment strategies to build more resilient portfolios, increasingly sophisticated approaches to climate risk assessment and management are needed. How are global investors integrating sustainability into their processes, assimilating alternative climate data sources and risk analytics into their portfolios, managing climate exposures, seizing opportunities and building more resilient societies and economies? What are the major gaps and how can they be addressed?

Tokenisation, or the recording of agreements on blockchains, has emerged as a technique to improve financial asset processing.  Where are we in the technology journey, and how will this impact traditional investment management? What are the emerging risks and shifts to business models? This panel will discuss the state of digital asset tokenisation and offer some glimpses into the future of financial assets.
