Juan and Andy were joined by Air Marshal Sir Graham Stacey to learn about how decisions are taken at the very highest levels of the UK military.
Stacey – who joined the RAF in 1980 and has served in numerous theatres of conflict, including Afghanistan, Bosnia, the Gulf, Iraq and Kosovo – accompanies us on a diverse conversation that, in addition to a great overview of military decision-making, takes in ideas such as dealing with ‘catastrophic success’ (when things go unexpectedly well) and ‘red-teaming’ (employing people as in-house devil’s advocates and contrarians).

Tobias Carlisle is joining us this week for a two part interview. This first one we recorded in 2019 so consider this a 'replay' although it only surfaced back then as some blog posts. You may know Toby as the host of The Acquirers Podcast and Value: After Hours or as the managing director of Acquirers Funds. He and Juan discuss why value shouldn’t be declared ‘dead’, what might act as a catalyst for a recovery in value investing and whether reversion to the mean still has a key role to play in value investing.

Welcome back to the second episode in our ESG mini series. We’re joined this week by Arjun Murti. Arjun is a member of the ConocoPhillips board, a senior adviser to the energy sector, and a former partner at Goldman Sachs.

Episode notes:
1:13 Episode intro
1:52 Arjun’s background
4:02 Cyclical energy- from a major influence in the S&P to a minority
7:07 Are traditional energy majors becoming irrelevant in this energy transition?
14:37 Strict positions - is there a parallel between nuclear in the past and gas in the present
18:47 Traditional energy companies are currently vilified - what role should they play in the climate change debate?
23:43 European energy majors are investing in renewable projects - are oil companies obligated to invest in these technologies for their longevity?
28:39 Why are cash-rich oil majors seemingly slow in investing in future technologies?
32:39 Should oil should transition to renewables?
34:39 Hydrogen’s role in the energy transition
36:46 Will a transition make cost of capital rise for fossil fuel companies?
41:47 Supply disruption - will we see more energy price spikes and volatility in the future?
46:24 If you could persuade every investor into their process, what would it be? If you were the CEO of an oil major, what you do to secure the business?

In honour of COP26 this month, welcome to our mini series where we're exploring ESG or environmental, social, and governance factors within the industry. In this series, which we're releasing every Thursday during the conference, we're interviewing old and new guests on their approach to ESG within the industry. We've sought to speak to a wide range of guests with a variety of perspectives on this well-known topic.
To begin, we're thrilled to have Erik Kobayashi-Solomon back on the pod. Erik penned an article called Science doesn't care what trading desks are saying which caught our eye. From there, we discussed how trading desks motivations could be aligned with climate change issues, how investors can put a sustainability lens on industries outside of oil and gas, and what changes to an investor's framework can be made when thinking about the future.
Minutes:
00:33 Series intro
01:12 Guest intro
01:55 Episode term glossary
03:12 Episode intro
06:34 Will trading desks ever care about climate change?
11:31 Bill Gate's 75% Problem
15:23 The weight of a phone
19:31 What role should oil and gas play in climate change?
22:42 Is nuclear's role unfairly diminished?
29:00 If you could persuade every investor who listens to this podcast to add one extra step into their investment process, what would it be?
