Details
This event climate finance doesn’t just refer to the private investments put into corporate transformation. How nations of differing wealth transfer climate capital funds to poorer countries will play a vital role in the success of the global fight against climate change, as will the mobilisation of financial organisations across the board - asset managers, policymakers, institutional investors, policymakers and campaigners.
The second FT Race to Net-Zero forum will explore the ever-expanding world of climate finance and dissect the challenges and opportunities that come with transitioning to a greener path of climate change investment.
Green Financial Tools
From climate bonds to green bonds, transition bonds and central bank fund deployment, assess the best financial tools available to support a green transition and analyse what other solutions could still come to market.
Resilience versus Solution
The inevitably of climate change’s impact on economies is forcing the investment community to focus on both resilience and adaption as well as solutions. From asset managers to policymakers, how should capital be best channelled in the race to net-zero?
Climate Finance Reporting
Access to reliable and current climate-related financial data is imperative if businesses and markets are to avoid pitfalls in the transition to a low-carbon economy. What role can reporting play in enabling a seamless transition to green finance?
