This is an important time for #impinv to show the way forward, not a return to the inequitable, unsustainable pre-COVID "normal". We have to see our work through the lens of #systemschange if we are to achieve the #SDGs and address the #ClimateCrisis.

Excellent news with @avivaplc committing to reach #netzero across all its activities by 2040, the first insurer to make such a commitment. This is the level of ambition we want to see in the financial sector. Well done @Amandas_Shoes! #climateaction – at Ottawa, Ontario
Today we’ve announced the most demanding carbon emission target of any major insurance company in the world 🌍
For the world to reach Net Zero, it’s going to take leadership and radical ambition. And it is going to take Aviva to play our part. in.aviva.com/2O7LHfK

2/ I’m a big fan of growth investing over value. Growth is about predicting the future, value is usually about fixing the past. Thinking about the future is more creative and uncertain thus higher payouts if you are right.

If you want above average results, you have to say no to average opportunities.
If you spend all of your time chasing average opportunities, you'll have no time for great ones.
This applies to people, books, problems, etc.
Raise the bar.

It may sound boring to some but Insurance is a key enabler of economic growth and backstops trillions of dollars of economic activity.
As many business owners found out, significant gaps exist in coverage for the business interruptions that are becoming more and more frequent.

Today we announce a new venture, @ottrisk
Over the last year a few things have become clear: the world is more uncertain than ever, and the situation for small businesses is more perilous than ever.
Technology and capital can play a role in solving this problem.
