Frédéric Samama, PhD in Economics and MPhil in Philosophy, is a pioneer of green finance. He created the first mainstream low-carbon equity indices and launched what was at that time the world's largest green bond fund to finance green infrastructure in emerging markets. He co-initiated the first coalition of investors committed to climate action, representing the entire financial sector at COP21. He also co-edited Sovereign Wealth Funds and Long-Term Investing with Patrick Bolton and Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz, and has testified before the US Senate on climate finance. He is an adjunct professor at Columbia University and Sciences Po.
