Anthropocene Fixed Income Institute
Fixed income markets outsize equity markets, including as a source of fresh capital for fossil industries and stranded assets. The Anthropocene Fixed Income Institute (AFII) conducts research into these linkages, generates climate-positive trade ideas, and executes advocacy in a bid to end the worst climate transgressions through the bond market. The AFII also seeks to develop creative ways for fixed income to play a positive role, through deepening of the green bond market and further developments of green financing concepts. Being driven by the belief that climate commitments must in the end be reflected in the buy and sell decisions of traders, portfolio managers and allocators, AFII mainly engages market professionals to ensure that relevance.
