N2  - The subject of green investments is currently a matter  for much critical assessment and heated discussion  across all asset classes. As the debate spills into the  mainstream of the private equity and venture capital industry  there is a need to determine a clearer picture of how  institutional investors view ‘green’ opportunities. To achieve  this, New Energy World Network and AltAssets undertook a  survey of institutional investors that allocate capital to private  equity and venture capital funds (and are referred to as Limited  Partners or LPs). One hundred and ten active and influential  LPs were asked about their levels of interest in investing in  private equity or venture capital funds that are predominantly  focused on the areas of clean technology, environmental  technology, renewable energy and sustainability (which we have  collectively defined as ‘green’ investments)
