    Episode 27 - Nature & Biodiversity with Maria Nazarova-Doyle

    Our Guest Speaker This week we speak with Maria Nazarova-Doyle, who is the Head of Responsible Investments & Stewardship at Scottish Widows, about their new report “Nature & Biodiversity: The Pensions Imperative”.    Read the Report   Rory’s Book Review Dr Rory Sullivan’s book review this month is Overruled - Confronting Our Vanishing Democracy in 8 Cases, written by Sam Fowles. His summary of the challenges our democracy is facing is all the more concerning, given that we need strong institutions to guide the transition to a more sustainable future.  From the Author “British democracy is on trial. We can no longer hold our leaders to account; the state has too much power; and the truth doesn't matter at all.”  Buy the book.   More about Nature & Biodiversity  You can find out more about COP15, the Montreal Agreement and the Taskforce on Nature-Related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) through the links below.   COP15: Biodiversity is the web that connects us all @ https://youtu.be/0Bask7FL5Mk COP15: Montreal Agreement: https://www.unep.org/news-and-stories/story/cop15-ends-landmark-biodiversity-agreement Taskforce on Nature-Related Financial Disclosures: https://tnfd.global Grand Committee at the House of Lords debating the Financial Services and Markets Bill: https://lnkd.in/dzE67CfS   More about Maria Nazarova-Doyle  At Scottish Widows, Maria leads the work on incorporating responsible investment and active stewardship principles into the investment portfolio.

    Episode 20 - Special episode, a message to Guy Opperman

    Back in Episode 18, UK Pensions Minister Guy Opperman challenged our listeners to let us know what they would if they were the pensions minister. We were lucky to have some great contributions come in from our listeners, so in this episode Adam and I listen along with you and give our opinions on what we're hearing. This was great fun, particularly as we were able to record it in the room together over a cuppa. Rory Sullivan goes back to Irelend with his book of the week, which is very much part book review, part therapy session https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/We_Don_t_Know_Ourselves/cKWKDwAAQBAJ?hl=en Please feel free to connect with any of our contributors or hosts: Dan Mikulskis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danmikulskis/ Sandra Dailidyte (voice of our mystery contributor): https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandra-dailidyte-aba64179/ Maria Nazarova-Doyle: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maria-nazarova-doyle-cfa/ Francesco Curto: https://www.linkedin.com/in/francesco-curto-a9174bab/ Mike Clark: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-clark-696100136/ Sir Steve Webb: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-webb-1714b54/ Sarah Wilson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jsarahwilson/ Guy Opperman: https://members.parliament.uk/member/4142/contact Rory Sullivan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rory-sullivan-73188418/ Adam Matthews: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-matthews-84926b31/ David Hickey: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-hickey-cfa-05633526/
