"When investors are given the right information, they do generally make appropriate decisions...markets require new tools to help them understand this new information." @matt_burke1 highlights the importance - and challenges - of building climate risk data into finance⬇️
'By 2030, climate change should result in 59 countries seeing a deterioration in their ability to repay their debts.'
Most investors aren’t paying attention to climate risks – the financial system needs to change.
✍️ @matt_burke1

"The narrative is shifting...we need to think about the system as a whole, as well as individual actors".
