Description

Welcome to Beyond Curious with LCP, our podcast that explores the big questions of tomorrow. Each season brings a fresh take on the innovations and trends that are shaping the business world and beyond – from AI to Gen Z. Join us on the journey and discover actionable insights and ideas from a range of industry experts.

In seasons 1-4, we explored the rise of AI, the realities of modern leadership, perspectives on a turbulent pensions landscape, and the demographic forces shaping our future.

In our latest season, we bring together voices from across LCP to examine how climate change is reshaping the systems we rely on. Each episode asks what different sectors are seeing on the ground, with straight conversation on risks, openings and blind spots, and what good practice actually looks like.

In our final episode of the season, Nigel Timperley is joined by LCP’s Claire Jones and LCP Delta’s Jon Slowe to reflect on the key insights, the unexpected moments, and what these conversations tell us about the true state of the transition today. We cover: • How climate considerations have moved from novel to mainstream in investment and business strategy • Whether economics is now outpacing politics in driving the energy transition • Why the cost of transition needs a more honest and nuanced conversation • The growing importance of adaptation and resilience alongside decarbonisation
This week, Nigel Timperley talks to Kate Sinclair, LCP’s Head of CSR, and Paul Lewis, Cofounder & CEO at Seismic, about how organisations translate sustainability ambition into real operational change. The conversation explores where sustainability strategies succeed or fall down, where greenwashing risk tends to arise, and what makes a sustainability approach credible rather than cosmetic.
Nigel Timperley talks to LCP's Jessica Snowball about how climate change is reshaping the fundamentals of insurance and why insurers are often the first to see risk materialising. From physical climate impacts to transition and liability risks, the conversation explores how pricing, coverage and availability of insurance are changing, and what that means for businesses, households and policymakers.
Host Nigel Timperley talks to Shyam Gharial from LCP’s responsible investment team. They explore how ESG has evolved from a simple risk-management framework into a proactive tool for enabling real-world change, moving beyond "clean" portfolios to actively financing the transition in hard-to-abate sectors. They cover: • The original purpose of ESG as a risk-management tool • The limits of “clean” portfolios in a system-wide transition • Why transition-enabling investment now matters more than carbon snapshots, and why this often means engaging with high emitters that have credible plans to change. • How climate risk is reshaping long-term investment thinking across the board.
In the latest episode of Beyond Curious, Nigel Timperley talks to Sam Hollister and Mark Watts about how recent policy signals are landing with investors and consumers, whether Clean Power 2030 is still credible, and what happens when ambition meets physical and human constraints in the real system.
