“The Vantage View” is setting new standards by delving into cutting-edge topics that shape the economic landscape, and the latest episode, supported by research from Bloomberg Media Studios, explores the circular economy. This sustainable model diverges from the traditional linear economy, and Vantage is at the forefront of unraveling its significance.
Featured in this insightful episode is Dr. Seeram Ramakrishna, a distinguished Professor and Director of the Centre for Nanotechnology and Sustainability at the National University of Singapore. Dr. Ramakrishna guides viewers through the distinctions between the prevalent linear economy and the circular economy, emphasizing the latter’s potential to bring about significant societal benefits.
As the financial sector increasingly embraces circular practices, Dr. Ramakrishna sheds light on why companies are adopting these strategies to diversify and mitigate risks. Importantly, he outlines practical ways in which retail investors can actively participate in the circular economy, making informed investment decisions that align with their values and contribute to positive societal and environmental impacts.
