MSCI CEO Henry Fernandez said most investors still have not fully considered the impact of climate change on asset values, even as global temperatures continue to rise. According to Jin10, Fernandez said investors often focus on short-term issues, but climate risk is becoming a source of risk that cannot be ignored in all investments.
Fernandez said continued global warming, lower agricultural productivity, and more frequent extreme weather events are affecting corporate operations and investment returns. He said climate change has become an important factor influencing investment risk and return. He made the warning as Europe faces record heat, which has triggered large wildfires and disrupted social activity, while this summer's high temperatures have been affected by a strong El Nino event and severe drought threatens food production.
ING chief economist Carsten Brzeski called the persistent heat wave a "wake-up call" and said temperature indicators are becoming data that analysts need to pay close attention to.
