Bram Bos is Lead Portfolio Manager of Green, Social and Impact Bonds at NN Investment Partners. He has over 20 years of portfolio management experience, including previous roles at Unilever, APG Asset Management, Nomura, and Fullerton Fund Management.
Bram’s early career began in his native Holland, took him to Singapore for several years and then back to Holland, where he went on to build the green bond franchise at NNIP following its inception in 2015, back before interest in green bonds really exploded. The flagship NN (L) Green Bond Fund focuses exclusively on green bonds and combines a clear green profile with an above market performance since its inception. The fund is currently the world’s largest open-ended green bond fund in the market, with over €3.8 billion total assets under management.
Bram was awarded a Masters of Science and Financial Economics at Erasmus University in Rotterdam, and previously sat on the Fixed Income Advisory Committee for the United Nations-backed Principles for Responsible Investment.
In this episode, we discuss what makes a green bond “green”, the criteria he uses at NNIP to ensure green bonds meet international standards, what makes green bonds attractive to investors and of course, the concept of ‘greenwashing’.
