An unprecedented challenge… and opportunity
14h30 - 15h00Conference Room 1
Analysis from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) clearly shows the challenge ahead of us. Climate change has meant a rapid increase in global temperatures. Recent rises are unprecedented, even when we look back at a period of more than 2,000 years. Moving to a lower carbon world will involve widespread change and a huge amount of finance. This is the challenge of transition. And, for investors, it’s creating new kinds of risk and opportunity. At Invesco, we’ve launched a new fund which aims to support the transition to a low carbon economy over the medium to long term, while seeking to provide income and capital growth. The Invesco Sustainable Global Income Fund. This fund combines some of our best ideas on fixed income and global equities, and is supported by a team of more than 30 analysts. It has the freedom to flex its asset allocation across regions and between asset classes, depending on where the most attractive income opportunities can be found.
