Traditionally, investors have had one duty — to make the greatest possible return on capital for their shareholders. It’s an outdated model that’s brought us to the brink of climate disaster, and we need a new way of understanding value and returns that looks beyond the short-term and drives resources towards scalable solutions. There are trillions of dollars in so-called "green" funds, but how do we fundamentally redesign financial markets to make responsible, climate-focused investing the rule rather than the exception?
