  Going deep on physical climate risk

  Aug 18, 202633 min

  Given the scorching temperatures much of Europe has been facing this summer, it's not surprising that physical climate risk is high on the agenda for many investors. But actually getting to grips with the topic remains an ongoing process. In this episode, we speak to Nicolas Schneider, senior research engineer and macroeconomist at EDHEC Climate Institute. Earlier this year, EDHEC launched EDHEC-CLIRMAP (EDHEC-Climate-Induced Regional Macroimpacts Projector), an interactive tool that helps investors understand how specific regions will be affected economically under various warming scenarios. Find more information on it here . Schneider visited PEI Group's London office during London Climate Action Week in June for a conversation NPM‘s Toby Mitchenall. In addition to discussing CLIRMAP in more detail, Schneider covers a range of issues important for investors, including: Why markets are currently mispricing physical climate risk, and how that risk feeds into asset valuations. The crucial distinction between headline-grabbing acute events and the "elephant in the room" of chronic, compounding climate risk. The scale of projected GDP losses under a 3°C scenario and what it means for large institutional portfolios.

Hannes Manndorff is managing director at Austrian development finance institution Oesterreichische Entwicklungsbank (OeEB) , which is currently deploying (and raising additional third-party capital for) its emerging markets impact strategy. In a conversation recorded on the sidelines of the Impact Investor Global Summit earlier this year, Manndorff talks us through the strategy, including the target returns, investment pace, co-investment appetite and geographical remit of the fund. He also tells us what OeEB looks for in a GP and what red flags will cause it to back away from a commitment.

  ResponsAbility's CEO wants global allocators to 'go Dutch'

  Jul 14, 20269 min

  Bonus! In this short bonus episode of The New Private Markets Podcast , we bring you a conversation with Nadia Nikolova, the chief executive officer of ResponsAbility Investments. Nikolova was formerly head of direct lending at Allianz Global Investors and, in September last year, became CEO of ResponsAbility, which is the emerging markets impact-focused subsidiary of M&G Investments. This is another conversation from the sidelines of the Impact Investor Global Summit , which took place in London in May this year. At the event, Nikolova made an on-stage plea to allocators to emulate the Dutch model, and indicate to the market that they are willing to invest 10 percent of their assets into impact. "We don't have a capital problem; we have a capital allocation problem," she said. "Indicate you are willing to allocate, and then the products will be there." Nikolov also describes how institutional investors are increasingly interested in emerging markets debt exposure. "Many...have realised they are structurally over-allocated to the US, and structurally under-allocated to emerging markets," she said. Join us live! We are hosting a live webcast on July 29 to discuss the Impact 75. Join Toby Mitchenall, plus special guests, to discuss the newly launched list of the largest managers of private markets impact capital in the world and to answer your questions live.

It has established fund relationships with Brookfield , BlackRock , TPG , KKR and CIP , and a direct co-investment programme that spans infrastructure and private equity. It has partnered with Spanish bank BBVA and is on the lookout for additional, complementary LP partners to join its co-investment programme.

During a London Climate Action Week that took place amid a record-breaking heatwave, Al Suwaidi joined New Private Markets' Toby Mitchenall at PEI Group's London office, to discuss: How Altérra's co-investment activity has served as an effective manager evaluation tool; Establishing the co-investment vehicle, being on the receiving end of LP due diligence and the type of additional LPs Altérra wants to work with; How to frame returns expectations from a portfolio that spans private equity and infra assets; The evolution of the climate debate and how investors have or have not repositioned themselves; The next step: how Altérra wants to go further into the Global South by rethinking blended finance. On the concept of "first loss" capital: "Nobody wants to be the first loser, right? How do we change up the dynamic so that the first mover is actually the biggest winner?"

  From lab to scale: Why climate tech is getting stuck

  Jun 29, 202614 min

  With all the discussion about promising VC-backed climate technology facing a "valley of death", what is actually needed to take these companies to scale? Building plants requires a lot of equity, a bit of senior debt, "but ultimately you need many more layers of the cap table", says Temple Fennell, co-founder and managing partner of Clean Energy Ventures. "You need insurance, you need wrappers of all types, you need EPC folks." Fennell spoke to The New Private Markets Podcast on the sidelines of the Impact Investor Global Summit in London in May 2026. He is a veteran investor in climate technology, whose experience in sustainable investment was shaped by being part of the the Keller family office, which among other things converted its 3,500-acre farm to regenerative practices. On the agenda: Clean Energy Ventures' expansion from the US to Europe; How clean tech companies can struggle when it comes to building plants; The specific project financing needs for these industrial companies; The recent glut of allocations to climate funds and how this is working through to returns.
