“What do investors want?” is the primary question motivating Graham Sinclair, my guest on a recent interview on The Sustainable Finance Podcast.
Sinclair is one of the pioneers in sustainable investing: from launching the Principles for Responsible Investment into emerging markets in 2007, to working with iconic firms like KLD, IFC – International Finance Corporation, Parametric and AIG on Wall Street.
We sat down to talk about Sinclair’s course at Harvard Extension School, “Making the Sustainable Investment Case,” which is one half of the Sustainable Finance micro certificate and a benchmark for candidates in the Masters of Sustainability program.
New for 2025 is a two-part deep dive on Nature x Investment, drawing on the cutting-edge work of Irina Likhachova in biodiversity and fixed income. Sinclair is once again using “Fund Labs” projects for hands-on experiential learning with four specialist sustainable investment managers: Bill Page, Liz Simmie, Garvin Jabusch and Christofer Halldin.
Listeners are in for a treat as Sinclair offers a unique perspective on what investors want. Watch the full podcast:
