Recently, Harold had the opportunity to address the Regulatory Policy Institute Annual Conference at Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford. He spoke on the topic of emergent risk and economic policy. Today’s blog summarises some of his thoughts in non-technical terms.

Recently, Harold attended a conference of CEOs from South-West England, organised by Exeter University. Professor Gail Whiteman, Professor of Sustainability and Executive Director at Arctic Basecamp, gave a keynote address on climate risk. This was followed by a speaker panel consisting of Professor Penny Endersby, CEO at the Met Office, Paul Crawford, CEO of LiveWest, and Harold. Today’s blog summarises the thoughts he shared with the audience.

In today’s blog, Harold is joined by Sophie Peck to reconsider the case for tidal energy in the UK. They argue both politicians and bankers need to widen their horizons and consider its potential as an attractive source of renewable energy.

In his latest blog, Harold joins Will Richardson to cast an eye over the unique beauty of Scotland, arguing that any successful energy transition must put economic justice at its core.

Energy security is now a key concern in ensuring reliable, clean, and affordable energy. Harold argues that our energy future relies as much on consumer behaviour and community values as it does on technology and supply.

Following a recent post on growth stocks, Harold turns his eye to the so-called ‘value’ style of investing. He argues that true value investing is less about specific financial ratios than about the insights to be gleaned through the synthesis of broad context and specific details of companies that have hit hard times.
