Daniel Graña, emerging market equities portfolio manager at Janus Henderson Investors, Matt Doody, emerging market equities analyst, and Jennifer James, emerging market credit portfolio manager, discuss how Chinaâs decarbonisation has the potential to be one of the next major investment themes.
At the 2020 United Nations General Assembly, Chinese president Xi Jinping caught the worldâs attention when he stated that his country would target peak carbon emissions in 2030 and seek to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
Considering that China, home to the second-largest economy in the world, is the worldâs largest carbon emitter and president Xiâs targets are more ambitious than those of other industrialised countries, this initiative has the potential to reframe the global debate on whatâs possible when addressing climate change.
