Power, not oil, is where the action is. Electrification trends, boosted by AI, are accelerating the growth of the traditionally flat power sector. In this episode, Sean Kenney sits down with MFS portfolio manager Jude Jason to decode what’s really driving power demand, where the bottlenecks are and how investors can navigate the messy middle of the energy transition. They also reveal three durable lanes presenting attractive investment opportunities today and map out how the energy sector may evolve in the years ahead. Listen in for signals to help you cut through the hype and stay ahead.

They explore how to think about moats in a world of falling barriers to entry, why valuation is more art than science in this sector, and how AI is both a disruptor and an accelerant. Whether you’re wondering if SaaS is dead or just trying to make sense of the next wave of innovation, this conversation will help you cut through the noise and invest with clarity.

MFS may incorporate environmental, social, or governance (ESG) factors into its investment decision making, fundamental investment analysis and engagement activities when communicating with issuers. The degree to which MFS incorporates ESG factors into its investment decision making, investment analysis and/or engagement activities will vary by strategy, product, and asset class, and may also vary over time, and will generally be determined based on MFS’ opinion of the relevance and materiality of the specific ESG factors (which may differ from judgements or opinions of third parties, including investors). Any ESG assessments or incorporation of ESG factors by MFS may be reliant on data received from third-parties (including investee companies and ESG data vendors), which may be inaccurate, incomplete, inconsistent, out-of-date or estimated, or only consider certain ESG aspects (rather than looking at the entire sustainability profile and actions of an investment or its value chain), and as such, may adversely impact MFS’ analysis of the ESG factors relevant to an investment.

How can investors include human rights and worker safety in their valuation analysis? And what’s the best way to engage with companies on these social issues? ESG disclosures matter but they may not provide the full picture. In this episode of the All Angles podcast, Rob Wilson, Director of Global ESG Integration at MFS, delves into the use of increasingly available labor data to question corporate management and help make long-term investment decisions.
