Nederlandse pensioensector is Groene Zwaan in de dop

  • 20 August 2020 (3 min read)

Online Media Roundtable #5

De outperformance van duurzame beleggingen gedurende de Covid-19 crisis in combinatie met het groeiend aanbod aan duurzaamheidsinformatie en kwantitatieve methoden om deze in portefeuilleconstructie om te zetten, versnellen de vergroening van het Nederlandse pensioenvermogen. En dat kan tot ver over de grens een zwaan-kleef-aan-effect hebben.

Dat was de gedeelde conclusie afgelopen donderdag tijdens de Online Media Roundtable georganiseerd door AXA Investment Managers met als centrale vraag of de Nederlandse pensioensector kan uitgroeien tot ‘Groene Zwaan’, ofwel een niet eerder geziene schok teweeg kan brengen die de realisatie versnelt van de internationale duurzaamheids- en klimaatdoelstellingen.

Uit een screening door AXA IM van de Nederlandse pensioensector is gebleken dat met name de grote fondsen het voortouw nemen en bijvoorbeeld al aparte rapportages uitbrengen over hun duurzaamheidsbeleid en een pad hebben uitgestippeld aan de hand van de Duurzame Ontwikkelingsdoelstellingen van Verenigde Naties en het Klimaatakkoord van Parijs.
