Technology, policy and capital are the they keys to achieve a transition to a low carbon economy. But both business leaders, policy makers and investors are facing increasing short term pressure. These pressures often materialize in impatient capital leading to a bad capital allocation (fossil fuels, derivatives, etc.). How could we encourage patient capital to rebalance financial markets? Are there accounting norms, prudential regulation and asset classes avenues we could explore to achieve this objective?
