Details

The Government is keen to position the UK as a world leader in Green Finance, aiming to turn it into the first net-zero financial centre. With the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) becoming law from April, Britain’s largest firms will be required to disclose climate-related financial information, ensuring they take into consideration the risks and opportunities they face due to climate change.

Consumer demand for sustainable products and services continues to grow exponentially and financial services firms are increasingly incorporating ESG factors in their offerings. Join us at our ESG Investing Forum in order to hear from the Government, Regulator and industry experts and practitioners about ESG risks and opportunities and the latest regulatory developments, including TCFD reporting and Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR) and investment labels.
