FT Investing for Good Asia 2020 | Financial Times | 12 October 2020 | DIGITAL CONFERENCE

While sustainable and impact investing has been developing rapidly in Asia in recent years, capital allocations vary by country and the ecosystems supporting the growth of an investment pipeline are evolving at different speeds. However, with interest growing rapidly in green and sustainable investing, there is great potential for a wide range of players – from policymakers to asset managers, family offices and institutional investors – to shape this evolving market.

This event, the third edition of the FT Investing for Good series – now held in London, New York and Hong Kong – will bring together investors, wealth managers, development finance institutions, entrepreneurs and others to discuss the opportunities for investors in Asia, as they seek ways to make an impact on regional challenges, while generating a financial return.
