Overview

Science is telling us that unless we get to Net Zero by 2050, we will see increasingly adverse climate change which will present widespread risks to the financial system. The financial sector is particularly exposed to these risks through their lending and investment portfolios. Even so, new opportunities for banks will arise to finance the transition.

This masterclass explores the case for Financial Institutions to achieve Net Zero from both a risk management perspective and from a business perspective. We will also look at some of the key skills bankers will need to equip themselves with, to remain competitive and support their institution's sustainability ambitions.
