The Investment Relief Act represents the most comprehensive advancement in US climate policy in decades and creates substantial new investment opportunities. At a time when uncertainty about economic growth is rising, investing in climate mitigation offers exposure to an area where government policy is driving growth. The world ran on coal in the 1800s, on oil in the 1900s, and in this century, we will transition to renewable-based energy sources. The resulting capital cycle, estimated by McKinsey & Company to be $275 trillion over the next 30 years, will be the largest the world has ever seen. Please join us to learn more about how investing in this area can be additive to your portfolio.

Investors need a new playbook for a different environment. Interest rates trended broadly lower for a generation, creating a favorable tailwind for investing in both bonds and stocks. With inflation pressures emerging and interest rates now rising, investors need a different approach to what worked previously. Rising interest rates hurt both bonds and growth stocks and stock selection will become more important. Investing in companies that are leading the fight against climate change presents a secular growth theme that is also consistent with an inflationary environment. In this discussion we will highlight why investors should have exposure to this important area.
