Why climate adaptation is Malaysia’s next investment frontier
As climate risks become financial risks, investing in resilience is essential to protecting economic growth, attracting capital and securing Malaysia’s long-term prosperity.
Policy & Finance
The future of development finance is not primarily about money
Multilateral development banks have not kept pace with changes to the global financial environment. For middle-income countries like India, accessing knowledge and technology is now a bigger challenge than raising capital, which suggests that these institutions must rethink their operating model.
Corporate Responsibility
ESG is fragmenting – how should businesses respond?
ESG is meant to align environmental, social and governance priorities. But companies are increasingly being forced to choose between competing issues as ESG starts to break apart. How should companies rethink their approach?
Policy & Finance
Sustainable economies will own the future
The Covid-19 pandemic and the wars in Ukraine and Iran have reframed the issue of sustainability, which is now as much about sovereignty and economic security as it is about planetary health. Countries and companies that fail to recognise this have everything to lose in the coming years.
