Two experts, one question: Is climate risk already priced in? On this week’s episode of the ESG Currents podcast, Bloomberg Intelligence EMEA ESG integration analyst Grace Osborne hosts an Oxford-style debate. Dr. Jakob Thomae, co-founder and CEO of Theia Finance Labs, argues for the motion, while Dr. Ben Caldecott, founding director of the Oxford Sustainable Finance Group and a coordinating lead author on finance for the IPCC’s Seventh Assessment Report, argues against it. From green tech outperformance to central-bank stress tests, the signals are mixed. Greater information availability may help investors price climate risk, but radical uncertainty — from second-order effects to tipping points — remains far harder to capture.
