Wallis Greenslade

Wallis Greenslade serves as a Policy Fellow at the Grantham Research Institute, London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), leading CETEx’s nature strategy development to align financial systems with ecological resilience and net-zero transitions.

Her academic credentials include:

• Master of Public Administration (MPA) from University College London’s Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP)
• Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology and Bachelor of Commerce in Business from Victoria University of Wellington (VUW)

Her research pioneers novel frameworks for managing risk and uncertainty in monetary/fiscal policy to redirect capital flows toward climate resilience, with historical focus on property insurance’s role in adaptation and evolving public-private responsibilities under climate stress. Core domains span ocean/land nature-based solutions, fiscal-monetary policy coordination, and adaptation finance mechanisms.

Her recent policy submission to the UK Government on climate-related transition plans (2025) exemplifies her work translating climate risk into financial regulation, emphasizing corporate disclosure standards and systemic realignment of investment toward ecological stability.

Wallis leads cross-institutional collaboration within CETEx on land/ocean ecosystem finance, engaging central banks and public finance entities to operationalize nature-positive economic frameworks.
