The fourth annual survey of 300 investors shows wide regional differences in attitudes to climate investing, as Asia-Pacific (APAC) powers ahead while interest in North America lags behind. The number of APAC investors for whom climate change is central to, or a significant part of, their investment policy was 79%, rising above Europe (76%) for the first time.
“Now the real work begins!” says Lucian Peppelenbos, Climate and Biodiversity Strategist at Robeco. “One of the key themes this year is the strong progress by investors in the APAC region on climate investing,” Peppelenbos says. “Investors in this region are now the leaders in making climate change a significant or central factor in their investment policies.”
