#173 - Larissa Jäger - Wie schaffen wir Zukunftsfähigkeit mit unserem Geld?

Does sustainability need a rebranding? And what does responsible investing mean in a world full of geopolitical tensions? I wanted to know from Larissa Jäger, Co-CEO of Forma Futura: Is sustainable investing even possible today, or have wars and economic interests long since overtaken our values? Larissa explains why the term sustainability has lost its luster and why she prefers to speak of future viability. We discuss the transformation of key systems, from energy and digitalization to food, talk about Europe's dependence on raw materials, recycling and the circular economy, and the question of where true independence is even realistic. We also take a look at sustainable investments in times of geopolitical conflict: Which ESG criteria have gained in importance? Why do business relationships with authoritarian states and arms production remain exclusion criteria for Forma Futura? And why, from Larissa's perspective, are clear rules needed—but significantly less bureaucracy? ``` Chapter 05:17 – Future Viability Instead of Sustainability: A New Approach 08:53 – Geopolitics, Wars, and the Transformation of Our Systems 13:06 – Which Systems Need to Be Changed First? 15:50 – Digitalization, Data, and Deliberate Dependencies 17:49 – Europe's Dependence on Raw Materials and the Role of the Circular Economy 22:50 – New ESG Criteria: Supply Chains, Authoritarian States, and Security 28:41 – Too Much Regulation?
