Dimitri Zenghelis on optimising investment strategies for the climate change transition
"The cost of inaction will be substantially larger than the cost of action"
The Economics of Climate Change: The Stern Review has become one of the most influential reports on climate change ever produced since its release by Her Majesty’s Treasury of the UK Government in October 2006. Dimitri Zenghelis, senior economist for the review, worked under Gordon Brown as Head of Economic Forecasting in HM Treasury and has since held multiple roles, fellowships and academic posts including Senior Visiting Fellow at the LSE's The Grantham Institute and Senior Advisor to the Bennett Institute (University of Cambridge). He advises governments, banks, financial institutions, NGOs, and other international organisations on sustainability, climate change, innovation, economic modelling and clean urbanisation. Get comfortable for a macro-economic and financial markets double espresso covering topics including:
- Shenanigans that went on at the heart of government between Tony Blair and Gordon Brown
- The impact of the Stern Review’s focus on an economic case for climate action on the acceleration of the transition
- Optimising your investment strategy across the transition
- Who is Wan Gang? And why did he have a greater influence on the development of electric vehicles than Elon Musk.
- The reinforcing feedback between reduction in cost of technologies and favourable politics
- The difference between conditional and complacent optimism, the future of aviation, the joy of reading children's books - and a great deal more!
