Our CEO, Michael Stirling was able to meet with Kristalina Georgieva who is Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and listen to her insights on the global economy and the impact of AI on both developed and emerging markets. It was deeply informative from a global macro perspective.

Climate change is accelerating, with profound consequences for financial institutions. What changes are expected? Which scenarios should we be preparing for? How is it possible to model the risk given we only have historical data? What will be the impact on different asset classes and business lines? And how will climate adaptation be financed? Does this present an opportunity for the City of London to be the global leader in transition finance?
These are just some of the issues that will be discussed at the climate change acceleration panel at the Climate Change and Natural Capital Financial Leaders Summit, which is taking place on 20th May at Guildhall, London, as part of City Week 2024.

Highly infomative video to watch from the famous Joe Rogen podcast!
The ethical businessman Patrick Bet-David presents very alarming arguments about the motives behind #ESG ratings, describing them as tools of power and control. According to my independent research (Mainly about general durability and international civil engineering) and the resulting understanding, he is undoubtedly correct, it has nothing to do with #sustainability or #sustainabledevelopment. It is a power grab to exercise global control that is leading & will continue to lead to a runaway ecological and social destruction.
We are blindly marching into #TechnologicalFeudalism, this march has accelerated since interest rates fell below zero in March 2020, at the exact same time in which the #CowardsEpidemic started, is that a coincidence???This current #DigitalFinancialFascism facilitated by #WEF (World E.? Forum) could end up in #CivilizationCollaps or even #HumanExtinction. The gambling tool #ALADDIN, the #SAI thief (Semi-Artificial-Intelligent System owned by the Rock that is black and hosted by the SoftMicro’s Cloud), has now influence over more than 50 Trillion USD, more than the combined GDP of USA+China+Russia+UK+India. It is a gigantic monopoly, a monster, that has to be broken apart. Through the #Trojanhorses of #WHO (World H.? Organization) and #UBI (Universal Basic Income) the ground is layed for the implimentation of #CBDC's (Central Bank Digital Currency) and #SCS (Social Credit System), which are the perfect tools for ultimate control. In addition to that in order to stay in power and expand the control, the the nihilists and narcissists human groups behind the ALADDIN system want to erode national and local sovereignty, and link carbon-based life to the debt-based monetary system via a #Bitcoin sidechain. For details read articles: "Tokenized, Inc: BlackRock’s Plan To Own The Fractionalized World" and "Debt From Above: The Carbon Credit Coup" in the website: https://lnkd.in/eqHSnsAY.
Monopoly = Monoculture = no individuation = Stagnation = Collectivism (Communism, Socialism, Naziism etc) = no Freedom = Dogma = Cancer =Illness = Degeneration = Ecological destruction = Chaos =Hell on Earth!
Here are some direct quotes from some of the main actors in this horror senario we are in:
1. George Soros: "I am basically their to make money, I can not and do not look at the social consequenses of what I do";
2. Larry Fink: "We are going to ETF everything";
3. Klaus Schwab: "We penetrate the cabinets".
As a young man, as a responsible citizen, as an international civil engineer, as a aspiring entrepreneur and as a human being, I want to live and work in a hospitable #WorldInOrder created and maintained by billions of people and other life forms, rather than in a hostile #WorldOrder managed by #AI and a small group of creepy, degenerated, perverted, old, ethically decoupled, narcissistic and nihilistic individuals.
“If you want clean innovation, you need to invest in future-proofed assets which include the ideas, people and skills to make change happen”
We are beginning a new era of clean innovation, where financial services organisations can invest in positive change. Great insights today on ESG and economics from Dimitri Zenghelis at the IOB Future of Finance Summit. #IOBSummit
We are delighted that the Rt Hon. The Lord Mayor, Alderman Professor Michael Mainelli, and Sarah Bloom Raskin, Co-Chair of the UN Net Zero and Accountability Framework Review, Former Deputy Treasury Secretary and currently Distinguished Professor of Law at Duke University, are joining the exceptional speaker line-up at the Climate Change and Natural Capital Financial Leaders Summit, which is taking place on 20th May in London as part of City Week 2024.
Rapid warming of the planet and the increase in extreme weather have made climate change and biodiversity loss the most urgent issues facing the world. What are the responsibilities of financial institutions in tackling these issues? What constitutes best practice, particularly at a time when the value of ESG as a measurement tool of progress is being questioned?
A few highlights from the very topical programme:
The Lord Mayor will explain the role of green finance in catalysing the transition to net zero, while Lord Johnson, the UK Investment Minister, will review the investment opportunities in the UK’s renewable energy and climtech sectors that the transition is generating. Sarah Bloom Raskin will describe the situation on the other side of the pond – how is the approach to achieving net zero developing there? Where is the ESG debate heading ahead of the US presidential elections later this year?
The next panel in the programme examines the growth prospects for sustainable finance and investment in the run-up to COP 29. The speakers include:
🎤 William Vereker, Chair, Santander UK Group Holdings plc and Santander UK plc
🎤 Jose Vinals, Group Chairman, Standard Chartered
🎤 Sonja Laud (Schemmann), Chief Investment Officer, Legal & General Investment Management (LGIM)
🎤 Mercedes Vela Monserrate, Chief Executive Officer, the Global Climate Finance Centre (GCFC)
