Dear Sir or Madam,
Fourteen EU environment ministers have joined as members of the so-called “Green Growth Group” to promote the climate-friendly design of the next EU budget. Accordingly, the EU subsidy policy and structure should be in line with the objectives of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. At the beginning of May, the legislative proposal for the EU budget for the period 2019-2030 should be submitted.
And the financial sector should also play its part. According to the plans of the European Commission, new regulations are planned, which should explicitly promote green investments under the label “Green Finance”. Asset managers and institutional investors should therefore be brought to more climate protection and sustainability.
“The Trend is your Friend,” all stockbrokers know, and stock market psychology is sometimes more important than chart analysis and fundamental data. Currently, the EU emission rights trend is still bullish, which can be seen in nearly 10% higher prices for European allowances in the past week alone. Since the beginning of the year, the EEA has gained two euros or 22%. A year ago, prices were still at 5.22 euros per tonne and have since recorded a whopping 112% growth. Today’s Monday also starts with a plus of just under 2%.
