Brookfield Asset Management Catalytic Transition Fund
Summary
Brookfield’s Catalytic Transition Fund is a case study in how the financial industry can spearhead sustainable development. Brookfield Asset Management announced an initial closing of $2.4 billion for the Catalytic Transition Fund, marking a significant milestone toward the target of raising up to $5 billion for deployment to clean energy and transition assets in emerging markets. $1 billion of capital was provided by ALTÉRRA, the world’s largest private investment vehicle for climate finance based in the United Arab Emirates, with the purpose of mobilizing investment at scale to finance a new climate economy. The fund is focused on deploying capital into clean energy and transition assets in emerging markets in South and Central America, South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe. This strategic partnership will help drive clean energy investment into emerging markets, where investment needs to increase sixfold over current levels to reach the $1.6 trillion required annually by the early 2030s in line with global net zero targets.

Sea2see: Seastainable vision
Summary
BARCELONA, JANUARY 2023. What started in 2016 as a humble entrepreneurial attempt to contribute to a more sustainable future had turned into a solid eyewear brand present in major Western markets. François van den Abeele was even more excited by the rapid development of the Sea2see Foundation, which he set up in Ghana. But success brought its own new questions and issues. From the start, he had relied on the superb craftmanship and dedication of an Italian frame manufacturer. Over time that relationship had turned into a mutual dependency: He was now one of its major clients but, reciprocally, had developed a key supplier risk. What if something happened to that relationship? Should he develop a broader set of suppliers and, if so, how could that be done without antagonizing a great working relationship? Recycling very much set the stage for the brand’s sustainability claims, but it also took massive amounts of time to manage. As other companies started to develop their own fishing net recycling supply chains, did it still make sense to invest so much time in the upstream phase or should he pour his energy into his beloved brand? Finally, maybe it was also time to revisit the growth/profitability dilemma and open up the capital to increase the speed of growth, all for the benefit of the environment as impact fed on scale.
