Topic
As a financial institution in the Netherlands, Van Lanschot Kempen faces three significant transitions: the digital, protein, and energy transition. Hence Maarten Edixhoven, Chair of Management Board at Van Lanschot Kempen, holds the pivotal opportunity to guide long-term investment streams to facilitate these transitions. However, in the intricate landscape of sustainability, competing priorities often arise. With finite resources, prioritizing objectives becomes paramount, all while considering the needs of clients. Adding to this complexity, amidst ongoing conflicts in Europe, sustainability competes with other pressing concerns like housing and defense. This intricate mix places financial institutions in a delicate position, requiring them to effectively prioritize and communicate expectations. However, public perception can be unforgiving, even in the face of sincere efforts. How then do financial institutions tackle this multifaceted dilemma?
