Allianz Global Investors U.S. Retail CEO Blake Moore Authors Op-Ed for Financial Planning
Blake Moore, CEO of Allianz Global Investors U.S. Retail, shared his perspective on environmental investing in the May 2008 issue of Financial Planning.
In his Op-Ed, Moore discusses investors’ increasing appetite to capitalize on global environmental trends, citing an AGI investor survey in which 71% of respondents selected environmental technology as the most desirable major investment sector.
Further, Moore asserts that investor enthusiasm in this fast growing area creates an immense opportunity for financial advisors. Seventy percent of investors reported needing help from a professional advisor when it comes to sorting out how and where to invest in this emerging sector. “Clients want to put their green into companies that are developing products and services for a greener world, “Moore wrote, “and they want financial advisors to guide them.”
Propelled by influxes of capital and innovation, environmental technology will no doubt be an important sector for investors to consider for the long term. Moore declared, “The great news is that environmental investing is the rare win-win-win: You provide a valuable service; investors get an opportunity to enhance their returns and it all happens in a way that makes the world a greener place.”
