USA and UK moderately risky for climate investment; feed-in tariffs make the difference (Deutsche Bank via @cop15)

Deutsche Bank has digested climate policies of 109 countries to assess the risk for investors. While Italy is labeled most risky, climate related investments in both USA and UK would be of “moderate” risk. Both countries are hampered by a lack of so-called feed-in energy tariffs, which can be used to support development of renewable energy technologies.

“If you’ve got a feed-in tariff, you know what you are dealing with. It is well defined,” Kevin Parker, Deutsche Bank’s global head of Asset Management, tells Reuters.
