Description

In this episode, Stephen O’Neill, Head of Infrastructure & Natural Capital at NEST Invest – the £55bn, 13 million member DC master trust which holds the savings of one in three UK workers – offers his perspective on themes including the energy transition as a tailwind for the renewables sector; the rationale behind Nest’s investment in IFM Investors; the fund’s increasing allocation to timberland and views on nature capital, more broadly and the risks that keep him up at night.

This episode of Leaders in Investment is sponsored by UBS.

"In order to continue to meet savers’ retirement goals, private markets are not going to be just a nice-to-have, but will be essential."
