Climate Asset Management – the HSBC and Pollination joint venture – has appointed Andrea Abrahams to chair its Nature Based Carbon Fund investment committee.
Abrahams is managing director of voluntary carbon markets at the International Emissions Trading Association and has experience driving strategic decarbonisation programmes for global organisations and NGOs.
The announcement comes as the firm also appoints Pollination senior adviser Hugh Killen as non-executive board chair and former Natural Capital Fund investment committee member Irina Frolova as chair of the committee.
Martin Berg, CEO of Climate Asset Management, said: “On behalf of our shareholders, we welcome Hugh, Irina and Andrea into their new roles within the expanding Climate Asset Management family. Their collective experience will, I know, make a significant contribution to the leadership and governance of our business.”
