Longview Productions, publisher of Room151, has launched a sister title that covers the journey that institutional investors are making in transitioning to net zero.
Net Zero Investor will be of relevance to Room151’s readers involved in the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) or those in council finance departments who have investment responsibilities. But its reach goes well beyond the public sector.
The title is targeted at institutional investors around the globe who are working towards Paris-alignment. That includes defined benefit pension funds (such as the LGPS), but also defined contribution and sovereign wealth funds, insurance companies, master trusts, family offices, investment managers, endowments and charities.
With all institutional investors having to consider how they will manage their transition, there is a lot to cover.
You can take a look at Net Zero Investor here or follow the feed here. And you can register for our weekly newsletter here. The first newsletter was issued today (7 September), and gives an indication of the breadth of our content.

Leaders and laggards
Net Zero Investor highlights the positives and the negatives, the leaders and the laggards. It is a hub for discovering insights, creating contacts and understanding the net-zero challenge with all its nuances. Updated daily, the site provides news, features, interviews and analysis.
Recent stories of relevance to an LGPS audience include an analysis of why pension funds are turning to passive investments, Clywd Pension Fund’s £50m investment in clean energy and the impact of the Butler-Sloss case in local government.
But Net Zero Investor isn’t just about written content. We also produce roundtable debates, webinars, podcasts and “Better World” video interviews with high-profile interviewees such as Tony Juniper, the campaigner and chair of Natural England.
And we are building a portfolio of related events that bring together a broad audience of institutional investors. Our launch conference, Roadmaps and Returns, takes place on 1 December at the Stock Exchange in London and will cover: Paris alignment, asset allocation, natural capital solutions, data and reporting, COP27, policy developments and governance.
