The asset management industry is hungry to play its part in resolving the existential risk of climate change, but it cannot solve this problem alone, Janus Henderson underlined at the COP26 summit in Glasgow this week. Hosting a panel at the summit, Janus Henderson said facilitating further decarbonisation will require a combined effort by governments, corporates, capital markets and asset managers.
