Créhalet (pictured) has 17 years’ experience incorporating climate change and energy transition issues into investment decisions.
His mission at Sycomore AM will be to further embed climate-related considerations into our SRI strategy, bringing valuable ESG expertise to the team with a specific focus on the energy and mobility value chains.
Créhalet will work closely with the investment team responsible for managing the Environment range and will take an active part in the deployment of the Natural Capital strategy, working alongside our biodiversity specialist, Clémence Bourcet.
Imperiale said: "His in-depth understanding of the financial ecosystem, combined with expert knowledge of climate change issues, will be instrumental in advancing our long-standing efforts to implement a focused and disciplined SRI policy."
