Sustainable Finance, still a topic or now even more than ever‪?‬ Inside Corporates

Speaker: Amandine Favier (Head Sustainable Finance at WWF Switzerland)
Moderator: Matt Lock


What is “Sustainable Finance” and how can it help the wider organisation?
When will ESG become comparable amongst countries, as there is no agreed definition yet?
How did COVID-19 impact the ESG goals so far?

Future finance functions and their capital allocation decisions have a critical role to play when it comes to sustainability. In this episode we discuss what environmental and social risk management means and how financial institutions can integrate key environmental issues (e.g. fighting bio-diversity loss or climate change) into their strategic decisions. 

 "What kind of future do we want in 20 years time? We want our future to be a climate safe world with a “net zero emission” - means that there is more emission that is being absorbed from the atmosphere than emitted in the atmosphere.”
