Heatwaves could ruin your pension, according to UK’s Pensions Professionals

Heatwaves are jeopardising retirement as extreme weather events threaten investment returns, the pensions industry has warned.

Calum Cooper, the president of the SPP, said: "Put simply, you can't separate the future of pensions from the future of the economy. And you cannot separate the...

By Amy Owens The report, Ambition Under Pressure: Analytical Leadership vs. Strategic Hesitation, examines what the climate risk strategy of Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM), manager of Norway’s Government Pension Fund Global, reveals about the way financial markets are pricing climate risk.

Norway’s oil fund shows gap between climate risk insight and action

Norway’s oil fund, NBIM, has not applied its framework for measuring climate and nature risk into moving away from fossil fuels, a report from Carbon Tracker finds. The mismatch is due to a mandate limit, political expectations, and an increasingly uncertain global climate policy environment. The findings reveal the limits of voluntary investor action. Norway’s oil fund (NBIM) has developed one of the most advanced frameworks for measuring climate and nature risk, but it has yet to apply those...

Japan’s Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) said on Friday it will step up expectations for external asset managers to strengthen stewardship activities, including deeper corporate engagement, as part of efforts to enhance long-term investment returns.

Asia-Pacific Climate Report 2025: Unlocking Nature for Development

By Asian Development Bank Nature is a core economic asset in Asia and the Pacific, with around 75% of GDP directly or indirectly tied to nature through sectors like agriculture, fisheries, and tourism. Yet, nature remains largely invisible in economic planning. When ecosystems degrade, economies face higher health and disaster costs, reduced productivity, shrinking fiscal revenues, and weakened debt sustainability. The report highlights that ecosystem services—such as pollination, water purification, and climate regulation—provide multiple benefits, underpinning food security, public health, livelihoods...

El proceso de descarbonización y los retos de la protección social. El papel de la jubilación

Por María Susana Barcelón Cobedo Se parte de la idea de que el camino hacia la neutralidad climática conllevará de forma inevitable la supresión de muchos empleos, así como la expulsión definitiva del mercado de trabajo de determinados trabajadores. Concretamente, los de edad madura y de escasa cualificación, a los que no podrá exigirse, ni tendrán la capacidad para ello, una recualificación profesional para la que carecen de una base mínima de conocimientos. En este contexto los sistemas de protección...
