In line with a science-based carbon budget framework defined by t he Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)\, this keynote present ation outlines a simple and robust methodology to align investment portfol ios with maintaining a temperature rise below 1.5 C with 83% probability. We show how to keep the tracking error at a negligible level. This approac h works for both passive and active investment managers. It also establish es an exit roadmap for carbon- intensive corporates\, thereby generating a form of competition to decarbonize within the many social and economic in dustries and sectors. Four sources of risks are discussed: uncertainty aro und a rapidly shrinking carbon budget\, time impacts on decarbonization ra tes\, implementation risk due to market-wide selling pressure\, and uncert ainty about taxes on polluting companies. Being carbon neutral is then a b udget that the planet can spend. If it is true for the planet\, it could b e true for the proxies of the planet (i.e.\, the economies) and the proxie s of the proxies (i.e.\, the diversified portfolios). Then\, being carbon neutral means to reduce by 12%/year the volumes of CO2 in 2022. For invest ors who would wait\, it becomes -20%/year in 2025 and -47%/year in 2028. A lthough IPCC had always said “we can tackle climate change\, but the windo w is closing”\, for the first time a financial methodology integrates this \n\n \n DTSTART:20240516T150000Z DTEND:20240516T170000Z SUMMARY:MCCHE Precision Convergence Finance Webinar Series with Frederic Sa mama URL:/desautels/channels/event/mcche-precision-converge nce-finance-webinar-series-frederic-samama-357301 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
