Pension fund seminar 'Climate and Biodiversity: from ambition to practical implementation' - General

As a pension fund, how can you increase your impact to meet your climate goals? To what extent are climate change and biodiversity loss linked and what does this mean for your current climate objectives?

What are the starting points for trustees to include biodiversity objectives in investment policy? To what extent are investment beliefs influenced by biodiversity as a theme?

To what extent is biodiversity loss an investment risk? Is biodiversity an opportunity or a threat to returns? How can companies' impact on biodiversity be made measurable and tangible?

How can you link biodiversity and net-zero objectives and implement them in your investment portfolio without losing sight of investment returns?

These and other relevant current issues will be the focus of the educational event for pension fund managers and employees of management offices on 'Climate and Biodiversity: from ambition to practical implementation' on Monday afternoon, 14 October 2024 from 12.20 to 5.15 pm in Rotterdam, chaired by Caspar Vlaar, an independent pension fund board member associated with various pension funds.
