BMO Responsible Global Equity: the reality of climate change & the danger to the world’s economy
Jamie Jenkins, Head of the Responsible Global Equities and lead manager of the BMO Responsible Global Equity fund, talks to Ryan Lightfoot-Brown about how the fund looks beyond profit and loss to find those companies making a positive contribution to the wider common good – including Xylem.
With over 30 years experience in company engagement, Jamie shares BMO’s recent engagement success with a company looking to expand their supply chains to Vietnam. We also take a look at how are we preparing to live in a warmer world and facing the reality of climate change as a real and present danger to livelihoods and the world’s economy.
