There is increasingly widespread acknowledgement that physical climate risks are becoming material to private markets portfolios, but investors are still struggling to fully integrate these considerations into their decision making.
In this episode of The New Private Markets Podcast, we speak to Cambridge Associates partner emeritus Simon Hallett. He previously led the EMEA endowment and foundation practice, but since 2021 has served as head of climate strategy, and now advises the full range of the firm’s clients on integrating climate into their portfolios.
Tune in to hear:
- How private markets investors have improved their ability to measure and report climate risk, which still isn’t translating into how deals are actually underwritten, valued or exited.
- Why the non-linear, self-reinforcing nature of climate risk makes it uniquely hard to price.
- Why investors should focus on building resilient portfolios and scrutinising managers now, rather than waiting for better data, because the risk window is closing faster than the data can catch up.
