Bill Santos, Senior Managing Director, Head of Offshore Hedge Fund Solutions for K2 Advisors: “We are excited that the Franklin K2 Electron Global UCITS Fund is now extended to Singapore. With the global shift of energy production and consumption away from fossil fuels to renewable sources and the creation of new technologies that aid in decarbonizing world economies, we believe this fund is well positioned to capitalize on this global shift. In terms of investment opportunities, the most attractive ones today exist within the US, as the world’s largest economy has committed to going green. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) represents the most ambitious climate action ever undertaken by the US, which includes $369 billion of incentives toward clean energy over the next 10 years. We believe the IRA’s impact on the US will be much quicker than markets expect and will become apparent as companies integrate the IRA into their business plans. This will also lead to exponential growth in the addressable market of energy transition in the US, with investment opportunities across a spectrum of industries, including utilities, clean energy, infrastructure and storage.”
Christian Bucaro, Head of Retail for Asia at Franklin Templeton: “The launch of the Franklin K2 Electron Global UCITS Fund further highlights our commitment to offering liquid alternatives solutions to retail investors in Singapore. We believe that this strategy should appeal to investors keen on capturing growth opportunities and gaining diversified exposure to companies and technologies participating in the renewable energy transition. Our dedicated and experienced investment team has a strong track record of investing in the energy transition value chain and the flexibility to execute high conviction positioning though the use of both long and short strategies, and that’s what sets us apart from our peers.”
