    Ep 174: Unpacking the 2024 Indian Elections Results - What to Expect on the Road Ahead

    In this latest episode of the BritChamSG podcast, we hear from Chamber members Control Risks as they unpack the 2024 India Election Results. Join us for a conversation between Control Risks’ Angela Mancini, Partner and Head of Global Risks Analysis APAC and Amit Narayan, Partner and Head of South Asia as they outline what the Indian election results mean for government, businesses and the international community. While Prime Minister Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has secured the election victory, Amit outlines why the margin of victory has deviated from the predicted landslide outcome. Even though this would be Prime Minister Modi’s first time navigating a coalition government, Amit also emphasises that this is not a radical shift in Indian governance but a slight adjustment. The BJP still has the mandate to fulfil its promises to its people and its governance manifesto. Amit also addresses the concerns around potential shifts from Prime Minister Modi’s pro-business and pro-multilateralism stance. He shares how the Indian government might pivot to finessing the minutiae on policy and regulations rather than broad transformation changes, which may yield more opportunities for businesses. As China moves up the value chain, India may also realign its trade relations and seek to fill the manufacturing opportunities from its neighbour. India may also take a wait-and-see approach to engaging with the West as the UK, US and Europe find their way through the election season. Listen to the full episode to discover the opportunities and challenges arising from the Indian elections, and how your business can rise above India’s new wave of governance and policy.

    Ep 173: Building Gender Equality and Equity – ft. Pushkaraj Gumaste & Aditi Nair from Barclays Bank

    In this special episode of our podcast celebrating International Women’s Month, Charlotte Wilkinson of the British Chamber of Commerce Diversity and Inclusion Committee speaks with Pushkaraj Gumaste, Head Of Corporate Banking For Asia Pacific & Middle East, and Executive Sponsor For Barclays APAC Gender Agenda; and Aditi Nair, Managing Director Head Of HR, Asia Pacific, and Global HR Business Partner, Sustainable Finance, both from Barclays Bank Plc. The discussion explores how diversity, equity and inclusion can be built in organisations and how it can become a competitive advantage. Pushkaraj and Aditi share how Barclays’ commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender representation has grown over the years. Barclays has been increasing their female representation in leadership roles and providing avenues for women to have successful careers after returning from breaks. One example is through Launchpad - a platform that women across the organisation can access to plan and enable their careers in a structured manner. The conversation covers the challenges around gender equality and equity programmes in businesses, and the importance of having people take personal accountability for driving inclusion and diversity. The duo also touched on the importance of staying the course in DEI initiatives, not expecting immediate results and the power of employee resource groups in building equality and equity. These networks build community, solidarity and momentum in bringing about sustainable change within organisations. The episode culminates with practical wisdom and steps that organisations of all sizes can apply to begin addressing DEI and gender equity.

    In this episode of our Podcast, Kate Wheble of the British Chamber of Commerce’s Sustainability Committee, speaks with Yuki Yasui, Managing Director of GFANZ Asia Pacific Network. The discussion presents a thought-provoking exploration of how sustainable finance can be a powerful force for positive change in addressing pressing environmental and social challenges on a global scale. Yuki shares her personal journey into sustainable finance, tracing back to her early involvement with the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) and highlights pivotal moments such as the launch of the Equator Principles and the Principles for Responsible Investment. The dialogue extends to recent global developments, with a particular focus on the outcomes of COP26 and COP28. Yuki underscores the critical importance of sustainable finance in driving forward the global climate agenda, emphasising the need for concerted efforts from governments, multinationals, and financial institutions alike. Furthermore, Yuki articulates the imperative for clear definitions and robust transition planning in sustainable finance. She advocates for common understanding and alignment on financing strategies, particularly in the transition from "brown" to "green" economies, to mitigate risks such as greenwashing and ensure genuine impact. Throughout the conversation, Yuki's insights underscore the pivotal role of finance in catalysing sustainability efforts, shaping policies, and fostering collaboration across sectors.
