Integrating Climate Change Risks and Investing in the Smooth Transition to a Low Emissions Economy
 
This Initiative is championed by President Emmanuel Macron of France

The one planet sovereign wealth fund framework

Following the 2015 Paris Agreement to collectively mitigate the effects of climate change, the One Planet Summit was held on 12 December 2017, which was followed by the Climate Finance Day, recognising the important role played by this key sector.

Given both their influence and long-term investment horizons, SWFs are uniquely positioned to promote long-term value creation and sustainable market outcomes. Accordingly, the “One Planet Sovereign Wealth Fund Working Group” was established at the event in order to accelerate efforts to integrate financial risks and opportunities related to climate change in the management of large, long-term asset pools.
