Webinar Overview

What are investors missing? Market news during 2026 has been dominated by a few big themes and headline-grabbing companies. Against this noisy backdrop, it is easy to overlook companies making significant progress in tackling some of our biggest global challenges. Join Rosie Rankin as she shares a fresh perspective on where some of these opportunities could lie: companies delivering meaningful change whose potential may not yet be fully recognised by the market. Companies making profitable progress under the radar in areas such as affordable housing, the circular economy and innovative healthcare. Find out how these hidden gems can contribute to investment returns, aid portfolio diversification and help drive long term positive change.

Learning objectives:

Look beyond the headlines: Recognise how market noise and dominant investment themes can obscure compelling opportunities elsewhere.
Identify hidden opportunities: Understand how companies addressing global challenges, including affordable housing, the circular economy and healthcare, can offer underappreciated growth potential.
Explore the investment benefits: Appreciate how investing in companies delivering positive change can contribute to long-term returns and portfolio diversification.
