The world’s climate is changing … it’s real

 Heat waves and periods of


unusually warm weather

 Ocean warming, sea-level rising


and coastal flooding

 Arctic and Antarctic warming,


glaciers melting

The world needs to act on climate change
• According to Sir Nicholas Stern*, overall cost of global warming
may be equivalent to losing 5% of global GDP annually* (approx.
€2.000 bn)
• Proceeding without action to reduce emissions could increase
costs up to 20% of global GDP annually!!!**
• Cost of action in reducing greenhouse emissions to avoid the worst
impact is limited to only 1% per year of global GDP (Investment
phase of 10-20 years)***
• This will lead to potential market sales exceeding several 100bn
US$

The world needs to create a low-carbon economy.

Milestones in climate policy

1988 UNEP and WMO establish the IPCC


1992 UN convention on climate change
1995 2nd IPCC report stresses anthropogenic effect
1997 Kyoto Protocol passed
2001 USA refuses to ratify Kyoto Protocol
2004 Russia ratifies Kyoto Protocol
2005 1st meeting of Kyoto Protocol participants
2006 Stern calculates costs of climate change
2007 4th IPCC Report emphasizes the threat

For Internal Circulation Only


Political support & political will growing
Political and social awareness at all time
high
■ Kyoto Protocol is covering 163
countries. Countries actively working to
meet the emissions standards set for
2008 – 2012 timeframe.

■ Countries globally moving to reduce


their carbon footprint e.g. European
emissions limits.

■ U.S. States like California taking


initiative to set standards in absence of
Federal legislation
…This is only a taste of things to come
Climate Change is now at the forefront of all political campaigns and debates -
the realisation that we need to act now has come

Investment focus on companies that deal with:

Reduction of CO2 emissions – to reduce greenhouse effect.


Energy –solar, wind, bio, fuel cells, hydro, geothermal and geoenergy
Disasters – products/services for monitoring and disaster prevention in
vulnerable and costal areas. As well as emergency relief services or support
rebuilding efforts.

Cleaner technologies
• Companies whose products make significant contributions
toward reducing greenhouse-gas emissions
• Low-emission / emission efficient power generation:
Accounts for 30 percent of global CO2 emissions e.g.
Verbund
• Mobility: Because around 20 percent of all emissions come
from the transportation sector. Improving passenger
and freight flows is very important. Also includes things such
as new drive systems, lightweight components, fuel cells and
hydrogen technology e.g. Skysails
• Filter systems: For industrial power generation and in the
domestic sector e.g. Johnson Matthey
• Natural resources: Exploiting the potential of renewable
resources (biomass in general, timber in particular) to produce
carbon-neutral materials and energy e.g. Rayonier

Energy efficiency
• "Factor Four - Doubling Wealth, Halving Resource
Use" is the title of a book by Prof. von Weizsäcker.
It sounds too good to be true, but it is real.

• Companies in this investment area work with


techniques and processes that improve the
efficiency of energy use. These include the
following:
• Facility management e.g Johnson Controls
• Air-conditioning and heating systems e.g. Emerson
Electric
• Lighting systems e.g. Aixtron
• Insulation e.g. Rockwool
• Consumer electronics e.g. Phillips
• New materials such as supraconductors e.g BASF

Environmental management / damage limitation
• Measures taken now can no longer stop climate
change that is already taking place. Adaptation is
the top priority.

• Estimates for OECD countries calculate the cost of


infrastructure projects for combating its major effects
will total about €100 billion in the next 15 to 20
years.*

• Companies in this investment area are in the


following segments:
Waste management e.g. Coventa
Health / Biotechnology e.g. Diversa
Geological services e.g. Grontmij
Disaster protection / infrastructure e.g. Boskalis
Reconstruction e.g. Chicago Bridge

Results in a Sound Portfolio
• With ideal sector exposure, diversification and optimal risk
management

• Well-positioned individual stocks are selected, based on


fundamentals and environmental sector

• The investment selection process results in:

ÆOptimal exposure in all the existing investment areas


of climate-change solutions (using top-down and bottom-up analysis)

ÆAchieving the long-term goal of creating assets,


coupled with earnings power generated by active management, while
still being able to exploit current market sentiment to make short-term,
opportunistic investments. This results in the generation of alpha.

Common questions
Is this a Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) fund?
• No, this is not a SRI fund with SRI limitations.
• We invest in companies that will profit from climate change grouped
under ‘mitigation’ and ‘adaptation’.

Are there enough companies to choose from?


• Over 1000 companies to choose from.

What makes this fund so potentially profitable?


• We invest in companies with existing products that are already profitable
with the demand of climate change.
• Companies in the portfolio should have at least 20% market share, e.g.
Toyota

How about unproven/smaller companies?


• If Fund Manager decides to invest, will be < 0.5% of the portfolio
• This way risk will be managed.
