The extreme weather events witnessed this year reinforce the urgent need for climate action.
Facing headwinds including an energy crisis, war in Europe, and inflation - how can actions at a national and global level address the climate crisis through financing a resilient, affordable and orderly net zero transition?

Against this backdrop, COP27 is a critical moment for policymakers, business leaders and finance to recommit to climate action and unlock capital to support real world decarbonisation. Coinciding with COP27 finance day, the Financial Times, in partnership with HSBC, is delighted to host this webinar that will look at how we can rewire the global economy and deliver the US$120trillion of investment required to reach net zero by 2050.

• Macro Outlook
Given macro headwinds, where are the tensions and opportunities?

• Progress in the Banking Industry
Will we see an acceleration of progress that banks and the finance industry are making as a result?

• Reaching Net Zero
How can we rewire the financial system to support the industrial transformation required to reach net zero by 2050?

• Scaling Investment
How can we scale investment to where it is needed most?

• Forward Thinking
Looking ahead, what needs to be done by COP28 to further unlock new sources of capital?
