Munib Madni, CEO of Singapore-based Panarchy Partners, returns to Kopi Time to talk about the fast growing world of climate investing. We go over the realities of climate change hitting home, numerous changes in the regulatory environment globally, and the deepening zeitgeist around investments in the context of climate mitigation. We then get into the thorny issue of how to deal with climate sceptics, including the dialogue around just transition. Munib then looks at various market failures, issues related to the term ESG and carbon pricing, Asia’s role in climate change and related investments, and financial returns coming from decarbonisation. Tons of inspirational takeaways for those feeling gloomy about our planet’s future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

DBS Kopi Time E083 - Munib Madni on Climate Investing

“The game is optimising and maintaining profits for the long-term, not maximising it over the short-term” Munib Madni, CEO of Singapore-based Panarchy Partners, explains why he transitioned from a career in traditional buyside fund management to setting up a firm that seeks to redefine the notion of wealth and its creation. He walks us through the key aspects of sustainability-driven fund management, focusing on returns and progress on four forms of capital; human, social, environmental, and financial. Munib has joined a group of visionaries who use data analysis to assert that companies with strong social purpose and progress deliver sustainable financial returns over time. He addresses the challenges and opportunities, conceptual and practical, that come with this approach. The ongoing pandemic has shone a strong light on the resiliency of companies with greater purpose and responsibility, along with their preparedness to deal with forthcoming regulations in the post-pandemic world. As companies move from shareholder accountability to stakeholder accountability, and societies exert pressure on firms to become more cognisant of climate change, fund managers like Munib are a key part of these critical transformations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kopi Time E16: Munib Madni on putting sustainability at the core of investment decisions

After Covid-19, one of the biggest subjects occupying academia and boardrooms is Conscious Capitalism. You’re either deeply familiar with the term, or you’re not. If you’re not, climb aboard. Capitalism as we know it is about to undergo a major transformation. For the better part of a year now, the topic has been coming up in conversations with CEOs, investors and thought-leaders, who say the old paradigm of operating solely in the interest of shareholders is done and dusted. The new paradigm is more inclusive. That means accommodating and protecting the interests of a broader group of stakeholders, including employees, the environment, and society at large. Some cynics say it’s already too late. Optimists, on the other hand, believe that through consensus building, re-allocation of resources, and top-down leadership, it is not only possible, but probable. Evidence abounds showing that corporations can be both profit- and purpose-driven. Up this week, the asset management industry. As buyers and sellers of corporate assets, they are the proverbial gate-keepers of corporate financial performance. With $80 trillion under management worldwide, there’s power at play. Fortunes have been made and lost on the decisions laid down by asset managers. For the longest time, financial performance has remained the central barometer for all buy and sell decisions. This too must change. Enter a new breed of asset manager. Those that believe that the best corporations are those that do well by doing good. In this week’s episode, I speak to one such individual. Munib Madni spent 13-1/2 years with Morgan Stanley before he saw the light, resigned, then re-emerged as CEO of his own asset management firm, Panarchy Partners. In this conversation with Munib, we talk about the evolution of the industry, the forces now shaping a new kind of investing, and the emergence of corporations, poised to make a difference.
