In this episode of Leaders in Investment, IPE Real Assets Editor in Chief Richard Lowe speaks with Stephen O’Neill, Head of Infrastructure & Natural Capital at NEST Invest
Stephen O’Neill, Head of Infrastructure & Natural Capital at NEST Invest – the £55bn, 13 million member DC master trust which holds the savings of one in three UK workers – offers his perspective on themes including the energy transition as a tailwind for the renewables sector; the rationale behind Nest’s investment in IFM Investors; the fund’s increasing allocation to timberland and views on nature capital, more broadly and the risks that keep him up at night.
“In order to continue to meet savers’ retirement goals, private markets are not going to be just a nice-to-have, but will be essential.”
