Cutting past the noise on the climate/energy transition | David Harris, Sustainable Finance Strategic Initiatives. London Stock Exchange Group

The Better Boards Podcast Series

Send us a textOver the last decade, climate and sustainability have become more of a focus for boards and sub-committees. However, there is currently a lot of conflicting noise around this agenda. So, there is a lot for boards to digest around this topic, making it an opportune time to take stock of where we are and what boards should consider.In this podcast, Dr. Sabine Dembkowski, Founder and Managing Partner of Better Boards, discusses climate/energy transition with David Harris, who has worked on these topics for over 20 years. He leads sustainable finance strategic initiatives at LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group), having previously led sustainable finance for two of its divisions:  FTSE Russell in its index business, and its Data and Analytics division.“20 years ago, this was regarded as quite a niche area. Today, that picture is completely different. It's one of the top issues for institutional investors.”The data backs him up. In FTSE Russell's annual survey of global pension funds, they ask if the funds are integrating sustainability issues into their investment strategies. Among the largest and most sophisticated funds, those with over 10 billion dollars in assets under management, 86 per cent do. “Of the different sustainability themes, climate change and energy transition rank in our asset owner survey as being the very top priority.”Data from the International Energy Agency shows in 2024, annual investment into the energy sector was $3 trillion,  $2 that in 2024, annual investment in the energy sector was $3 trillion,  $2 trillion in clean energy, and $1 trillion in fossil fuels. In contrast, around five years ago, they were roughly on par at $1 trillion each. So, David says we are well into a substantial shift in the global economy, and boards and investors need to understand that.“I think there has been some surprise.. from boards at the level of reporting requirements coming at them.”Shifts of this magnitude come with many reporting requirements – requirements that have many boards less than thrilled. Some of the exasperation is at the newness of the requirements, and some is frustration with the scope. David feels this is a legitimate concern, as many boards find that keeping up with reporting can detract from focusing on the most material and relevant issues of running the business. “What's really important here is… sustainability standards are increasingly being set in a way which aligns them with the way companies are used to reporting on financial information.”The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Foundation has set up the International Sustainability Standards Board, which may be familiar to many listeners. It aims to get global sustainability standards set up in a way that aligns with how companies are used to reporting on financial information and in a format that's easier for the investor community to use. The three top takeaways for effective boards from our conversation are:1.      Don't get lost in all of the reporting regulations. Cut through that and focus on the material issues and what's right for the business. 2.     Make sure you're engaging your investors, not only the sell-side analysts but also the institutional investors who sit behind them, i.e. the pension funds and sovereign wealth funds, as well as the asset managers and understand their priorities.3.     Build your expertise and lean on the resources available through Chapter Zero and similar networks.

Jeannette is joined by the one and only Vivienne Artz OBE, the CEO of the FTSE Women Leaders Review, to discuss her remarkable journey in the financial sector and her passion for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Vivienne shares her experiences, including overcoming impostor syndrome and the challenges she faced in her career, such as navigating a male-dominated environment and the importance of mentorship and sponsorship. She also highlights the significance of data in driving change within organisations and the need for structural adjustments to create equitable opportunities for women in leadership roles. KEY TAKEAWAYS It's important to be open to opportunities and not wait to be tapped on the shoulder. Taking initiative and applying for roles, even if you feel underqualified, can lead to unexpected successes. Data plays a crucial role in understanding and addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in organisations. It can reveal insights about performance and representation that may not be immediately apparent. Challenges and setbacks are common in any career. Learning from difficult experiences and surrounding yourself with a supportive network can help you bounce back and grow stronger. Effective leadership is characterised by inclusivity, where diverse voices are heard and respected. This not only benefits the organisation but also creates a more collaborative and dynamic work environment. It's essential to recognise when to let go of certain roles or projects to make space for new opportunities. Renewing focus and passion for your work can lead to greater fulfilment and success in your career. BEST MOMENTS "When the door closes, look for all the open windows" "Imposter syndrome is a reality, but it's one that you can let take hold and define who you are, or you can say, well, you know what, that is." "What we really need are more women as executive directors, and we need more women as CEOs and CFOs at the leadership level." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.

In our latest episode, we talk with Marianthe Evangelidis, Director of Sustainable Finance & Investment at LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group), where we discuss how knowing yourself and your values can help you evaluate opportunities, make decisions and lead you to your most fulfilled life. Marianthe shares the courageous decision to embark on a two-year sabbatical with her husband, sailing from the UK to New Zealand, which was driven by their shared values of adventure, learning and sustainability. This sabbatical was not just a break from work but a deeply aligned step with her personal values and purpose, allowing her to engage in sustainability projects and community building on remote islands. Rather than feeling this time away from the office set her career back, Marianthe translated her experiences into roles more aligned to her values upon her return. In addition, Marianthe discusses empathy as a crucial tool to drive change, helping her bring others along on her journey and highlights the importance of senior sponsorship in driving successful projects, stating that having senior support is crucial for implementing change effectively. "You had a lot of enthusiasm. You had a lot of people wanting to work towards making a success. But you do need that senior sponsorship to actually move things quickly as well."

Currently a Senior EUC Engineer at the London Stock Exchange Group, STEM Ambassador & Sports Volunteer Akua wears an incredible amount of "hats" too! A massive advocate for women in a number of different capacities such as Women In Tech, Black Women in Tech, charity ambassadorships, initiative leaderships, she is just so passionate about helping people in any way she can. We chat about her childhood aspirations, early influences and the seeds of creativity and empathy that were sparked within her from an early age. The conversation covers The Simpsons, Hello Kitty, clocks and the practical qualities that she began to show, citing her grandparents as one of her biggest inspirations. In her teens, Akua felt pulled to become a pediatrician (with light up roller skates and a cape no less!) in pursuit of her passion to help others. Akua talks me through a potential Army career (with a warning about telephone numbers!) and the story behind her journey into the male dominated world of tech. Fighting her way up the ladder as a woman, we chat about the difficult journey she experienced to get to where she needed to be. Genuine determination and bucket loads of research Akua tells me is the key to being intentional when it comes to landing your dream role. We talk through how she started as an advocate for DEI, specifically in LSEG and the shock of being the only woman on her team, a fact that took some time to wrap her head around. She tells me of all the amazing women that have helped her along the way, such as Ella Morgan, Sarah Hepworth, her Mentor at LSEG Jennifer Burns, we chat about her massive CV of projects to date including a UNICEF water walk, activities linked to social purpose, community projects, joining the Woman's Inspired Network, LSEG Foundation and Co-Lead London Chapter of Accessibility Network, UK Charity Committee, LITERALLY this lady is on FIRE! Akua is undoubtedly a woman of action, she's a doer, she's proactive in making changes in any way that she can to help others. She is also a massive champion for Neurodivergent employees, having received her own diagnosis only a few years back. Determined to spotlight the incredible neurodivergent women she had read about and encountered along her journey, Akua jumped onboard an initiative to help show employers what women could bring to workplaces! I cannot express quite what a force of nature and inspiration she is, selflessly giving up the majority of her free time to help others, she is jam packed full of empathy and compassion for others, Akua is a very special woman. I truly believe that she is going to leave a legacy behind, she is the epitome of an action taker, and a thoroughly amazing human being.

The conversation concludes by noting the relationship between market bifurcations and broader economic trends.Next, Liz Ann interviews Jeffrey Kleintop, Schwab's chief global strategist. Their conversation covers the global economic outlook, China's market performance, central bank policy, geopolitical risk, election risks, and asset allocation.

If you were asked ‘What is the London Stock Exchange Group, (LSEG)?', most investors would answer, ‘the London Stock Exchange, of course.' Yet, the correct answer would be, “well that's only 5% of revenues today”, and then you might pause and wonder what the rest is… In this conversation with David Schwimmer, a veteran of Goldman Sachs, and CEO of the LSEG since 2018, we examine an organisation that today has revenues of £8bn, an operating income of £2.8bn and a market capitalisation of approximately £50bn. LSEG is the 14th largest company in the UK, employing 25,000 people in 70 countries, and is now 4% owned by Microsoft (as of May 2024).  David explains the LSEG business today, how they are the no.1 globally in real time financial data, how they serve customers in areas from risk-analytics, FX, bond trading, KYC, ALM verification. He discusses the partnership with Microsoft, and the rapid shifts in technology, as well as their impact on business execution and enhancing productivity. Finally we have an earnest conversation about the UK, which has the second largest pension market in the world, London's enviable position, and why persistent negative press around delisting may have created a stronger narrative than the facts would suggest. ​​The Money Maze Podcast is kindly sponsored by Schroders, IFM Investors and the World Gold Council.

Ex White House Advisor Says Attacks on Trump Threaten to Sink Economy

In the face of a waning American economic momentum over the past year, a prevailing sense of apprehension has begun to arise from within the circles responsible for its affairs. A past figurehead at the helm of America's economic governance warned of a potential threat to its financial stability. Kevin Hassett, the former Chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, sounded the alarm bells regarding the unfolding political drama on a Tuesday episode of 'Mornings with Maria'. Hassett voiced his concerns about what he viewed as a deeply partisan and perhaps constitutionally dubious case taking place in New York. The case, targeting none other than former President Trump, seemed to have provoked a disturbing question. The question was not merely about the figure at the center of the ordeal; it was about the prospect of a former U.S. President being incarcerated and the reaction that American and global markets might exhibit. If such a scenario was to unfold, he asked, would one feel optimistic about purchasing U.S. Treasury bonds the next day? The economic landscape these comments were situated within was one that failed to inspire confidence. The Commerce Department's first reading of this annual GDP growth smacked of underperformance. Our macroeconomic health, as represented by the GDP (the aggregate of goods and services produced), posted growth of 1.6% in the first quarter of the year. This figure not only marked the slowest advancement in two years, but it also fell significantly shy of the 2.4% increase many economic pundits, including the London Stock Exchange Group's economists, had been projecting. The repercussions were immediate. This disappointing growth momentum prompted stock investors to retreat, triggering a sell-off in the markets. The reaction wasn't limited to the perimeters of Wall Street either. The Dow Jones Industrial Average took a hefty hit, plummeting by 375 points. In'tandem'with this, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite found themselves on slippery terrain, closing 0.5% and 0.6% lower, respectively.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we are happy to welcome Umerah Akram and Martijn De Wever.Umerah is Head of Private Markets at the London Stock Exchange, helping grow the Group's offering for private companies. Martijn is CEO & Founder of Floww, a digital platform connecting start-ups, venture capitalists, investors, and business partners. LSEG works in collaboration with Floww to create a new standard for data in private markets and connecting the innovation ecosystem to traditional private capital on a single transaction platform.And we must say, we've seen quite a few firms come up in Europe lately trying to disrupt exactly this. And some have looked quite similar, if not indistinguishable. So when we first heard about Floww, we were suspicious. But we do actually think there's something to pay attention to here. ‘Cos Floww has partnered with LSEG, yes - that LSEG. The London Stock Exchange Group. And they're not playing the game of building a centralized platform for private markets, but rather the game of empowering the decentralized nature of private markets.So what's the stock exchange getting into this for? Well nothing less than the ushering in of a new type of wholesale market in the UK. An ambition which the government is committed to and is referred to as the Intermission Trading Venue by the UK Treasury, which, in short, is about giving private companies opportunity to access periodic liquidity. Exactly that is what the LSEG is leveraging their public market assets to deliver. Tune in for a deep dive that will paint a journey from today's private market to the future's.This episode is brought to you in partnership with LSEG and Floww.

2023 marks the first time greenhouse omissions will decline while energy consumption, production, and populations are increasing. New, environmentally sensitive production systems (solar, wind, etc.) are biting into the fossil fuel history. These are just the tip of the iceberg for environmental and sustainable investing opportunities that could help turn back the tide of damage to the planet. Even more importantly, looking after the planet and learning how to govern for a positive future for all mankind should sit at the center of how we build new from our existing corporations to the future corporations.Today's podcast is with an expert who will guide us through what that conversation we should all be having as leaders in major enterprises as we learn to re-balance.
