John is Director of Market Relations and Climate Change Lead at the World Gold Council, managing its climate change research programme and its associated engagement activity with stakeholder organisations.
The WGC’s ‘Gold and Climate Change’ programme seeks to deepen the understanding of gold’s current and potential future climate impacts, including gold’s ability to transition to a net zero carbon future. It also examines how various climate scenarios might impact gold’s performance as an investment asset and how this might be shaped by the policy and regulatory landscape.
