CARBON as an ASSET CLASS and the WORLD CARBON FUND
el próximo martes 18 de junio a las 19:00 hs.
Sobre el ponente:
Michael Azlen
Founder and CEO of UK based Carbon Cap.
Michael Azlen is a senior investment professional with 25+ years of industry experience including the founding, growth and sale of a regulated investment management business to a public company. After a 15 year career spanning two Canadian banks and several alternative asset management companies, Mr. Azlen founded his first investment management business in 2005 and grew it to $700 million in assets before achieving an exit to a public company. Michael then focused on research into climate change and impact investment strategies. As we have seen from recent record-breaking heatwaves and increased incidences of drought/wildfires, our climate is changing rapidly due to human generated emissions. The next 10 to 20 years are the most important period for mankind to make substantial and sustainable emissions reductions and the urgency of this objective cannot be overstated as the potential negative impacts and costs to society are immense.
Michael’s research culminated with a deep focus on regulated carbon markets resulting in the authorship and publication of a full academic paper on Carbon as a liquid and investable asset class. Based on this research, Michael formed Carbon Cap Management LLP as an environmental asset manager focused on carbon markets and climate impact and launched the World Carbon Fund in February 2020. The fund invests into multiple liquid and regulated carbon markets and has generated a net return of more than 115% over its 4 year track record. The fund has generated strong uncorrelated returns and a direct impact on reducing carbon emissions. Capping and Reducing Emissions CARBON CAP Copyright © 2024 Carbon Cap Management LLP.
