    How Asia-Pacific banking leaders can create a net-zero future

    In response to the need of moving towards sustainable banking, global banks have committed to bringing down emissions to net-zero by 2050. If we are to truly transform the global economy, we need a sea change in capital flows, and in the financial industry that guides them. Financial services organizations (FSOs) are central to this process. Many are setting increasingly ambitious targets to eliminate their own emissions, achieve net zero “financed emissions,” support the transition of existing clients and fund new climate solutions. How can financial institutions in Asia-Pacific set the right leadership vision as well as navigate the complexities of sustainability governance? Join Eric Lim, Chief Sustainability Officer at United Overseas Bank (UOB) and Wolfram Hedrich, EY Financial Services Risk Management Partner and EY Asia-Pacific Sustainability Leader, with Clare Sporle, EY Financial Services Partner, who is based in Sydney, Australia. In part one of this episode, they explore why bank leaders need to be better at articulating their sustainability vision and what to consider as you establish your governance structures and execute to achieve that vision.

    Key trends accelerating Asia-Pacific banking growth in 2022

    Asia-Pacific banks have largely moved cautiously and in lockstep these past years, resulting in increasingly commoditized offerings. To emerge from the shadow of COVID-19 and achieve distinctiveness among their peers to pull ahead of the pack, they need to take more decisive actions to eke out fresh approaches for accelerated growth. Only then, can they transform and transition to top-decile performers that are more resilient and future-ready for tomorrow. In this episode, we discuss the transformational trends in consumer banking and the role of technology and digitization in creating opportunities for the existing and new players, the role of FinTechs and neobanks in tilting the competitive playing field toward areas where they enjoy advantages, and the likely sentiment of banks as they look to evaluate and expand their presence to capture a large market share. Tune in to a conversation with EY Banking & Capital Markets leaders, Jan Bellens, Tzu-Chung Liang, and Andrew Gilder.
