Details

The conversation about climate change is evolving fast and sometimes springing from unexpected places. Pension schemes are constantly re-examining how they identify and manage risks whether this be political, economic, technological or environmental.

Within this context, carbon risk management deserves a special focus given its far-reaching investment strategy implications.

Our half-day technical seminar will examine the key issues climate change and carbon risk management poses pension schemes, and will provide delegates with the opportunity to listen and engage in insightful discussions from Sackers, ClientEarth and BNP Paribas.

The seminar will feature an educational overview, panel discussion as well as a practical session.

Unmissable sessions include:

Investing and Climate Change: TPR's new guidance and the legal framework
Climate risk in investment decisions: How the law is shaking up business as usual
Managing Climate Change investment risks: practical solutions
Invest Wisely Pension Fund - putting the debate into practice
Climate risk and today's trustee: what next?
