Description
Governments worldwide are implementing stronger food environment policies to address the rising burden of diet-related non-communicable diseases. As more countries have, or are considering, implementing policies to improve the healthiness of the food environment, including mandatory front-of-package labelling and reformulation targets, courts are becoming an increasingly important arena in which food-policy debates are contested.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management has published "Evolving Thematic Landscapes and Megatrends in 2026", part of its Investment Outlook series, setting out the themes it expects to shape public and private markets. It argues that sustainable investing is maturing rather than retreating — "fewer labels, more performance" — favouring mature energy-transition sub-themes such as renewables, grids and storage and "pick-and-shovel" companies over subsidy-reliant growth, while economic security, reindustrialisation and resource and energy security for AI take centre stage.

The piece flags power demand, physical risk and adaptation, the circular economy and water stress as areas of overlooked opportunity, noting that data centres consume around 3% of US power today and could reach 8% by 2030, that over 90% of new US power capacity in early 2025 came from renewables, and that two-thirds of new data centres sit in high water-stress regions. The article is available to read in full via the link.

BNP Paribas Global Markets (research from BNP Paribas Equity Research, formerly Exane) has published a thematic article, drawing on research from BNP Paribas Equity Research (formerly Exane) and its Quantitative Investment Strategies team, arguing that nuclear power is emerging as a cornerstone of the sustainable energy transition.

It points to soaring electricity demand — the IEA projects an extra 3,500 TWh over three years, equivalent to Japan's annual use — driven by electrification, urbanisation and AI/data-centre load that intermittent renewables alone cannot meet, alongside a COP-30 pledge by 33 nations to triple global nuclear capacity by 2050. 

The piece projects nuclear's share of the global energy mix rising from around 4.7% today to 7–14% by 2050 and cites specific momentum including reactor build-out in China, new agreements in France and South Korea, and growing interest in small modular reactors. The article is available to read via the link.

ISS Governance has published its analysis of the 2026 US proxy season, reporting that overall shareholder-proposal volume fell to a five-year low even as governance-related proposals rose and were the only category to win majority support.

It attributes the reshaped landscape largely to the SEC's 2025 Staff Legal Bulletin No. 14M, which gave issuers more room to secure no-action relief and drove up omissions, while the Division of Corporation Finance stepped back from opining on most exclusion requests. 

Environmental and social proposals continued their multi-year decline in both submissions and votes. Read the full analysis via the link.

Morgan Stanley has published an analysis arguing that the energy transition is entering a new phase — no longer a simple substitution toward lower-carbon power but a race to build secure, scalable and resilient systems.

Drawing on Morgan Stanley Research, it projects annual net additions to global power capacity over the next five years running around four times the 2000–2020 average, as electrification, AI and data centres accelerate consumption across the US, Europe and Asia. Energy-security exposures are reframing electrification, renewables and nuclear as a resilience strategy as much as a climate one, with financing shifting toward contracted, cash-generative assets.

Chatham House has published a research paper by Katja Bego, 'How a Surge in Defence and Dual-Use Technology Investment Could Reconfigure the Global AI Race', challenging the assumption that AI leadership is a fixed two-horse race between the US and China. It argues that high defence spending and a boom in dual-use AI investment give smaller and middle powers an opening to build their own capabilities and 'chokepoints', potentially producing a more multipolar but also more securitised and fragmented AI landscape.

The paper analyses four trends from 2025 and early 2026 — accelerating dual-use defence AI, the rise of 'patriotic tech', growing pushes for AI and defence sovereignty, and concerns over an AI valuation bubble — and sets out how the private sector can prepare. The paper can be read and downloaded from the Chatham House site. 

S&P Global Sustainable1 has published the second-quarter 2026 edition of its Sustainability Quarterly research journal, "The long and short of it", examining how stakeholders are managing near-term disruption with a long-term lens at the halfway point of the year.

The edition finds that conflict in the Middle East and AI-driven power demand are reshaping the energy calculus – with wind and solar featuring more prominently in Big Tech's roadmap for energy autonomy – while research into transportation weighs decarbonisation against practical barriers to EV adoption such as cost and charging infrastructure.

It also explores how river flooding and forest degradation translate into financial risk, how governance data helps investors navigate corporate controversies, and reports that sustainable debt financing continues to favour mature transition technologies, with S&P Global passing 1,000 Second Party Opinions analysed during the quarter. Read the journal for S&P Global's full second-quarter research.

Ceres has published "The Future of American Steel", arguing that the US steel industry is undergoing a technology transition that can make it simultaneously more competitive, more productive and lower-emitting. It finds the shift is being propelled by market forces — notably demand from major customers such as automakers — and by trade policy, with large US steelmakers investing in a new generation of mills designed to supply the high-quality iron feedstock needed for advanced, lower-polluting steel.

The report maps the forces reshaping US steel production and sets out recommendations for how investors, policymakers and automobile manufacturers can accelerate and capitalise on the transition, framing decarbonisation as a competitiveness and investment opportunity rather than only a compliance cost. The full report is available to download via the link.

Amundi has published an Amundi Investment Institute working paper by Francesca Luciani and Thierry Roncalli arguing that physical climate risk must now receive the same analytical attention that transition risk has enjoyed. It observes that responsible investment has moved from broad ESG scores to granular climate-risk management, with portfolio decarbonisation now well anchored in standardised carbon-intensity and green-intensity metrics and mature integration frameworks, whereas physical-risk-aware portfolio construction remains in its infancy for want of an equivalent standardised anchor metric.

The paper reviews transition and physical risk modelling, discusses how to build physical-risk scores and integrate them into portfolio optimisation and strategic asset allocation, and concludes that meaningfully reducing both exposure and vulnerability is highly challenging, with a high "shadow price" of mitigation implying substantial costs and trade-offs. The full working paper is available to download via the link.

UBS's Chief Investment Office has published the May 2026 edition of its Strategic: Go sustainable note, reiterating the case for a diversified sustainable-investing portfolio across equities, bonds, hedge funds and private markets on the argument that long-run returns are driven more by fundamentals than politics.

Its distinctive angle this edition is the energy transition's importance for both security of supply and affordability, highlighting grid expansion and modernisation, high-voltage cables, transformers, switchgear and grid-optimisation software as beneficiaries of accelerating electrification. It notes global energy-transition investment reached a record USD 2.1 trillion in 2024 against the roughly USD 4.5 trillion a year the IEA estimates is needed by 2030 for net zero.

Ethical Screening has published a Q&A giving its initial reaction to the Science Based Targets initiative's long-awaited Corporate Net-Zero Standard Version 2.0. Its managing director broadly welcomes the standard, singling out the new best-efforts provisions — under which companies can remain compliant even without fully meeting targets — as a realistic mechanism that lets firms set achievable goals and be honest about roadblocks rather than fudging emissions figures.

He also praises the standard's differentiated expectations for companies in lower-income countries, while cautioning that the added flexibility could be exploited to delay action. Read the article via the link.

LGIM has published Investing in energy resilience, an extract from its 2026 midyear global outlook that frames energy resilience as a structural, economics-driven investment theme rather than a subsidy-dependent one. Falling solar, wind and battery costs, combined with rising gas-turbine costs driven by data-centre demand, have made renewables the lowest-cost source of new-build generation in both Europe and North America — so clean power is increasingly investible without government subsidies.

It sees regional divergence, with decarbonising, net-importing Europe leaning on domestic clean power while the net-exporting US shifts from policy-led to corporate- and demand-led development, and flags persistent clean-power supply-chain concentration in China. Read the article via the link.

Loomis Sayles has published 'What Policy Changes Mean for Healthcare', a short video commentary in which Senior Credit Research Analyst Derek Endsley discusses the policy pressures facing non-profit healthcare providers.

Endsley breaks down how recent legislative changes are affecting the credit profile of non-profit hospitals and healthcare systems, a key segment of the US municipal bond market. The piece forms part of the firm's Alpha Engine Perspectives series drawing on its municipal-bond credit research. Watch the video for the team's assessment of the sector's evolving policy risks.

• Time: 9:00-10:00 British Summer Time | 10:00 CEST | 18:00 AEST
• How to join: click here to register. 

Companies in the chemicals sector are major greenhouse gas emitters, and yet they also play a critical role in the low-carbon transition by providing technologies and materials needed to decarbonise other parts of the economy. The sector is one of the world’s largest manufacturing industries by market capitalisation and the largest industrial consumer of fossil fuels. Therefore, the chemicals sector is of considerable importance to both investors and global efforts to achieve climate goals. 
 
This webinar, organised by the TPI Global Climate Transition Centre (TPI Centre) at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), will first present the Centre’s new Carbon Performance methodology and key findings from the assessments of 23 of the largest companies in the chemicals sector. Following the presentation, the panel discussion will explore key barriers to the sector’s transition to a low-carbon economy, as well as enabling factors such as financing and policy frameworks. The panel will bring together perspectives from academic, industry and investor representatives.
 
Confirmed speakers include:

• Christin Köhler, Senior Specialist, CO2 Strategy, BASF
• David Russell, Chair, Transition Pathway Initiative, Ltd. 
• Maxim Sinclair, Analyst, TPI Centre, LSE 

The panel will be moderated by Ali Amin, Policy Fellow and Research Project Manager, TPI Centre, LSE.
 
We look forward to your active participation in the discussion.

Green Century filed around 30 shareholder proposals and engaged 66 companies in 2026 while noting many peer investors pulled back amid the political climate; it is the only US mutual-fund company wholly owned by environmental and public-health non-profits.

Researchers Thomas Dulak and Jean-Yves Gnabo (University of Namur / Universite Libre de Bruxelles) have published a working paper, Lifecycle Selection and Liquidation in Sustainable Mutual Funds, examining whether sustainable funds differ from conventional funds in their likelihood of liquidation, using European UCITS equity fund data from 2019 to 2025.

They find no robust difference in liquidation risk once observable fund characteristics are controlled for, but among otherwise similar funds matched on category, size and age, sustainable funds are significantly more likely to be liquidated - an effect concentrated in the early stages of the fund lifecycle that fades as funds mature.

They find no evidence that ESG signals (the Morningstar ESG Risk Rating and SFDR classification) affect liquidation risk within sustainable funds, concluding the pattern points to stronger early-stage product selection rather than systematically higher liquidation risk.

Describes why modern slavery and human-rights risks persist despite Australia's Modern Slavery Act and what investors and fund managers can do to drive change beyond compliance.

The discussion focuses on identifying human-rights risks early in the investment process and the practical steps active managers can take through research and engagement.

Morningstar Sustainalytics has published a research report, Expanding ESG Transparency in Private Markets, examining ESG risk in private markets through the Morningstar PitchBook Unicorn 30 Index and Sustainalytics Controversy Ratings.

It argues that ESG risks in private markets are often under-reported and that low controversy severity may mask emerging exposures, with AI-focused unicorn companies facing concentrated risks in intellectual property, data privacy, and quality and safety.

With many large, late-stage private companies expected to enter public markets in 2026, the report contends that extending ESG frameworks into private markets and standardising data could help investors anticipate pre-IPO downside risk and improve cross-market comparison, due diligence and portfolio risk monitoring.

An ESG Policy Assessment Report of Five Banks in Ghana

The report benchmarks the sustainability policies of five Ghanaian banks against the Fair Finance Guide International methodology.

The assessment scores the banks' publicly disclosed commitments across core themes such as climate change, human rights, labour rights, corruption, transparency and gender, applying the same policy-scoring framework the Fair Finance network uses in other markets.

It is intended to give Ghanaian civil society, customers and the banks themselves a transparent baseline for strengthening environmental and social standards in the sector.

Examines the ESG and geopolitical risks that increasingly accompany cross-border licensing deals between Western drugmakers and Chinese biotech firms.

As patents expire and R&D costs and pricing pressures mount, the report argues these partnerships are reshaping how companies build and diversify their pipelines while bringing new risks in product governance, patient safety, clinical-trial oversight and data transparency.

Traces which financial institutions in the Netherlands finance companies importing liquefied natural gas from the United States.

Finds that:

• ING was the largest lender, providing around USD 37 billion to companies in the LNG sector between 2017 and 2025, while
• Allianz was the largest investor at about USD 6.6 billion, with
• Dutch financial institutions channelling over USD 60 billion into the sector since 2017.

The research notes that 619 tankers carried some 39 million tonnes of US LNG to the Netherlands between May 2017 and end-2025 - more than five years of Dutch household gas use - even as many Dutch banks, insurers and pension funds scale back fossil-fuel involvement.

WBCSD has published its Business Breakthrough Barometer 2026, an annual pulse check on how leading businesses are responding to climate risks, opportunities and market shifts, drawing on more than 500 senior business leaders across 50 economies.

It finds that 92% of leaders expect sustainability to be a source of competitive advantage over the next 5–10 years and 89% have maintained or increased sustainability investment over the past year, as capital shifts toward clean energy, electrification, circularity and regenerative agriculture on cost, supply-chain security and resilience grounds.

At the same time 68% now see a disorderly transition as more likely than a year ago and 47% reported higher costs from physical climate impacts, while 85% of leaders favour policy strengthening over delay.

The full report, with seven sector deep-dives plus CEO and policymaker briefings, is available to download from the WBCSD site.

How financial institutions should approach human rights due diligence (HRDD) for companies developing, producing, brokering or exporting weapons and dual-use technologies.

The briefing sets out four practitioner challenges:

• the tension between security-policy pressure and sustainability commitments,
• limited technical capacity,
• hard-to-engage weapons companies, and
• weak ongoing (post-onboarding) due diligence - as defence exclusions come under pressure from rising NATO spending and publicly-backed defence finance.

It then offers six 'anchors' grounded in the UN Guiding Principles and international humanitarian law, arguing that overly narrow controversial-weapons exclusions (for example under the EU's Paris-aligned and Climate Transition Benchmarks) create a 'fiduciary blind spot', particularly around autonomous and AI-enabled systems.

Trellis (formerly GreenBiz) has published 'The State of the Sustainability Profession in 2026', the ninth edition of its biennial survey of more than 500 sustainability professionals at companies with at least US$1 billion in revenue, authored by John Davies and Saul Hansell.

It finds most large businesses are staying the course despite a tougher political climate:

• 46% have increased sustainability headcount and budgets over two years while 25% have cut them, and
• of companies with targets, 57% have maintained and 24% strengthened them.

It also charts a quieter, more compliance-focused posture — 63% have scaled back or rethought sustainability communications and 58% are prioritising compliance — alongside rising professional stress, with 44% finding their jobs less fulfilling than two years ago, though twice as many respondents were optimistic as pessimistic.

BMO Global Asset Management has released 'SpaceX and Mega-IPOs: How Indices Are Adapting' (episode 317 of its Views from the Desk podcast).

The episode examines how index providers including Nasdaq, FTSE Russell and MSCI are rewriting inclusion rules in real time, and what SpaceX's landmark IPO means for passive investors and the exposures embedded in index-tracking products.

Speakers Zayla Saunders, Hilly Cutler and Matt Montemurro discuss how the specific index an investor owns increasingly determines the concentration and mega-cap exposure they get.

Hamish was the lead author of a report on AI scenarios by the OECD - Exploring Possible AI Trajectories through 2030. The report lays out four evidence-grounded scenarios, from AI progress stalling to exponential acceleration. The session will cover which scenario looks most likely and the key factors shaping the scenarios from bottlenecks, to capability thresholds, incidents and how governments respond. AI scenarios are an important tool investors can use to assess investment risks and frame company engagements.

 Hamish wrote the report while at the OECD's Strategic Foresight Unit and has since become Director of AI Policy at the Centre for Long-Term Resilience (CLTR), a UK think tank working to help decision-makers assess and guard against extreme AI risks. He is a Member of the OECD Expert Group on AI Futures and an Affiliate of the Centre for the Governance of AI.

Corporate political spending hit an all-time record this cycle: $517 million, per Public Citizen — with four months still to go before Election Day. And much of it comes from companies sitting in ordinary index funds. If you own one, a slice of your savings went along for the ride.

I built a portfolio that opts out. The screen is rules-based and direction-blind — it measures how much companies give to federal campaigns, never which side. The result: 95% less political money than the broad market, with market-like behavior. I've been running it with my own dollars since December, and it's doing exactly what it was designed to do.

New piece on how it works — and why the screen just got stricter in a record-spending year:

Summary: Maersk continues to integrate sustainability directly into its Annual Report rather than publishing a standalone ESG report.

Key themes include green methanol-powered vessels, logistics decarbonisation, customer supply-chain emissions reduction, responsible ship recycling and climate transition strategy.

Rail entities outperformed shipping and aviation across key sustainability metrics, Sustainable Fitch says in a new report on the transport sector. Entities in the rail sector achieved an average Entity Score of 71 and an Entity Rating of ER2, higher than both shipping (60, ER3) and aviation (53, ER3). The expanded analysis covers 31 rated entities, up from 27 in the previous edition.

Environmental factors are the main differentiator across transport modes. Rail’s average Business Activity Environmental Rating of ‘2’ was stronger than that of shipping (3) and aviation (4), reflecting its lower-carbon operating model. Business Activity Social ratings are more closely aligned, with rail and shipping averaging ‘2’ and aviation ‘3’, underpinned by shared themes of safety, labour practices and accessibility.

Labelled debt issuance by aviation, rail and shipping represented 3.2% of global issuance in 2025, with annual green, social, sustainability and sustainability-linked volumes remaining above USD30 billion over 2023-2025. Asian entities led issuance, reflecting the financing/refinancing of public transportation systems in developed and emerging Asia.
Green instruments dominate, representing over 60% of the total value of labelled bonds issued since 2015.

Regulatory pressure is intensifying across transport modes in 2026. The EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) expanded maritime coverage to 100% of emissions from January, now incorporating methane and nitrous oxide, while the UK ETS extended to shipping from July. The European Commission is evaluating CORSIA’s effectiveness, a decision with potential implications for EU ETS coverage of international aviation.

Governance concerns dominated this proxy season, starting with the SEC washing its hands of judging shareholder proposal exclusions through to Texas redomiciles and votes against directors. Taking a look at voting results from December 2025 (after the SEC’s policy change) through June 2026, several things stand out to us in the data:

• Companies making their own exclusion decisions did not seem to negatively impact their vote support. UnitedHealth and Chubb may be the exception where they faced lawsuits to include a proposal, did not do so, and their Governance committee chairs saw under 90% support.
• Governance shareholder proposals continue to see higher approval, but environmental proposals at NVR and NextEra Energy received notable support at 47% and 35%, respectively.
• For a director to receive votes against, generally have to oversee weak pay, not show up or sit on a classified or dual-class share board. Poor share performance not so much an issue.

Rewriting the Rules of Engagement: 2026 Proxy Season Lessons and What’s Ahead

Join top governance experts as we break down the disruptive shifts of the 2026 proxy season and analyze the potential regulatory changes ahead.

15th July 2026, 11am ET / 4pm UK

The 2026 proxy season was anything but business as usual, and it looks like there may be even greater fundamental shifts ahead for both investors and companies. Between structural changes in how the SEC handles No-Action requests, escalating debates over the erosion of traditional corporate governance protections, and the chilling effect of 13D guidance on institutional engagement, the landscape has fundamentally altered.

And looking forward? The stakes are even higher as regulatory rumblings threaten to reshape shareholder proposal rights and say-on-pay mechanisms entirely.
Expert panelists:

• Catherine Moyer, Head of Americas Stewardship at Northern Trust

• Jon Solorzano, Partner, Governance and Sustainability at Vinson & Elkins

• Christine Chow, Special Advisor, Canbury Insights

Key Discussion Focuses:
• The No-Action Vacuum: How companies and proponents adapted to an SEC sitting on the sidelines, and why it's shifting disputes to state courts.

• Governance Fractures: Lessons from high-profile Texas redomiciles, extreme IPO governance structures, and what they mean for long-term shareholder value.

• The 13D Chill: Navigating the fine line of constructive collaborative engagement under tight activist filing guidance.

• AI in the Room: How artificial intelligence is reshaping stewardship meetings, engagement outreach, and boardroom oversight

• The Horizon: High-stakes implications if shareholders lose core rights to file proposals or vote on pay.

• Diversified mining companies assessed in this cycle are: Barrick Gold, China Molybdenum, China Northern Rare Earth, Compass Minerals, Fortescue, Freeport-McMoRan, Hindustan Zinc, Mineral Resources, Newmont Corporation, Sumitomo Metal Mining and Teck Resources.
• Steel companies assessed in this cycle are: Acerinox, Bodycote, CAP, Carpenter Tech, Century Iron & Steel, Citic Pacific Special Steel, Cleveland-Cliffs, Commercial Metals, Companhia Siderurgica Nacional, Daido Steel, Erdemir, Evraz, Feng Hsin Iron & Steel, Ferrexpo, Gerdau, GrafTech International, Grupo Carso, Hsin Kuang Steel, Hyundai Steel, Imerys, Iwatani, JFE, JSW Steel, Jindal Steel & Power, Kobe Steel, Leggett & Platt, NSK, Nucor, Proterial Ltd (formerly Hitachi Metals), Qatar Industries, Reliance Steel & Aluminium, Sandvik, Sims Metal Management, Steel Dynamics, Tenaris, United States Steel, Usiminas, Vedanta, Voestalpine and Yamato Kogyo

[2] Market capitalisation coverage is calculated for the companies for which this sector represents their primary activity. The calculation can change due to fluctuating corporate valuations, the size of the company universe assessed, or due to company sectoral reclassifications. Companies with a Not Assessed alignment were excluded from the total market capitalisation. 

Chronos Sustainability and the First Sentier MUFG Sustainable Investment Institute (FSI) hosted a webinar on World Ocean Day, bringing together experts in sustainable finance, development economics and ocean science to explore why the ocean matters to investors and the role investors can play in protecting the oceans.

Among the points made were:

• The ocean plays a central role in climate and weather regulation and is the largest interconnected ecosystem on Earth, home to more than 80% of the world’s biodiversity.
• Ocean health is declining. Overfishing, habitat destruction, coastal conversion, pollution and nutrient runoff are being compounded by climate change, driving marine heatwaves, acidification and falling oxygen levels.
• Investment in sustainable blue economy activities could generate significant positive economic benefits and reverse these drivers of decline. However, the significant gap in blue finance means declining ocean health is already creating financial risks through supply chain disruption, declining asset values, stranded infrastructure and regulatory exposure.
• For investors, ocean health is a systemic risk, a material dependency and an emerging opportunity space. Their challenge is to turn knowledge into practice, to manage ocean-related risks and dependencies in their investment portfolios and to make a substantive contribution to enhancing ocean health in the round.

One of the shortcomings of behavioural economics and psychology is that in experiments, researchers focus on personality traits and socio-economic factors, but pay little attention to the circumstances a person is in.

I have written in my Virtuous Investor series in 2020 about the risks involved in this. In particular, I pointed out the excellent book by Lisa Feldman Barrett that shows how circumstances influence our decisions. Even a small change in circumstances can turn these experiments upside down.

Yes (to provide one example that violates Betteridge’s law of headlines). Investors are increasingly pricing water risk across sectors and, in particular, within sectors.

A team of Dutch researchers analysed global stock return data for 14,650 firms in 75 countries and paired these companies with their self-reported water use where available. They then tried to find correlations between stock market returns and water use within an industry, as well as direct and indirect water use (throughout the supply chain) and the influence of water stress (water use relative to available water supply).

What does it take to move from climate commitments to credible delivery — and what is still getting in the way?
