What happens when sustainability strategies fail to address real climate risk and long-term investment outcomes?

In this episode of SRI360, I am speaking with Laura Ortiz Montemayor about impact investing, climate risk, and regenerative finance, and why sustainability alone may no longer be enough for investors focused on long-term value creation.

Drawing from Laura’s experience in traditional finance and her work building regenerative investment strategies in Latin America, the conversation explores how capital allocation shapes systems, and why rethinking how capital is deployed matters as much as where it flows.

The conversation is especially relevant for investors navigating climate finance, nature risk, and sustainable investing in emerging markets.

We talk about:

• the difference between sustainability and regeneration in impact investing
• why changing what we invest in isn’t enough without changing how capital is deployed
• how capital shapes systems, and risk, over time
• what regenerative finance looks like for investors focused on long-term outcomes
