Review of the Sustainability and Climate Change Initiatives Within the Line of Investment Portfolios
La intensidad y frecuencia de los desastres climáticos vienen aumentado drásti­camente durante la última década, con una tendencia que parece va a continuar en ascenso. Los costos asociados a estos eventos también se incrementan cada vez más. Además, se asume que este tipo de desastres climáticos están estre­chamente relacionados con el cambio climático al que nos enfrentamos como humanidad. En este escenario, el sector financiero juega un papel clave en la forma en que gestiona las acciones contra el cambio climático; por lo tanto, cuanto más fuertes sean sus impactos, más rápido deben implementarse estas acciones. Sin embargo, existe un rezago entre la prioridad de la necesidad de acciones y las acciones que realmente se están implementando. Se han pre­sentado algunos estándares de riesgo, pero aún existe una notable dificultad en comprender y modelar la incertidumbre de los impactos futuros del cambio climático. En este contexto, se necesitan otros tipos de esfuerzos, desde una perspectiva multidisciplinaria, que busquen complementar las acciones contra el cambio climático en el ámbito del sector financiero y las inversiones. En este trabajo se presenta un resumen de las principales iniciativas existentes, pero se destaca cómo, aunque responden a esfuerzos importantes y significativos a nivel corporativo, estas son de naturaleza aspiracional y voluntaria y, por lo tanto, insuficientes para abordar la necesidad mencionada. En este sentido, el artículo busca avanzar hacia la justificación de la construcción de carteras de inversión con principios de sostenibilidad ambiental.
The intensity and frequency of climate disasters have been increasing dra­matically over the past decade with a trend that also appears to continue. The costs associated with these events are also becoming increasingly higher. Furthermore, these types of climate disasters are assumed to be closely related to the climate change we are facing. Under this scenario, the financial sec­tor plays a key role in the way we manage the actions against climate change. Thus, the higher the impacts of climate change, the faster the actions must be implemented. However, there is a lag between the priority of the need for actions and the actions we are implementing. Some standard risk approaches have been implemented, but there is still a remarkable difficulty in understand­ing and modeling the uncertainty of future impacts of climate change. In this context, other kind of efforts are necessary from a multidisciplinary perspec­tive that aims to complement the actions against climate change in the fields of finance and investments. We provide a brief of the main existing initiatives but highlight how, although there are important and significant efforts at corporate level, the resulting initiatives are aspirational and voluntary, and thereupon, insufficient regarding the mentioned need. In this sense, the article seeks to pave the pathway towards the justification of the construction of investment portfolios with principles of environmental sustainability.
