SUSTAINABLE FINANCE WORKSHOP FOR FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
RISKS
Tougher environmental regulation may trigger credit risks
Environmental compliance is becoming a cornerstone of competition between leading companies and Asian brands
Sustainable finance is increasingly recognized by leading financial institutions as a key strategic aspect of financial management. The business case for managing environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues is now well established. On the one hand, there are risks to be managed. On the other hand there are investment opportunities to consider.
A systematic approach to sustainability issues benefits financial institutions in several ways, by reducing risks, revealing investment opportunities and building reputation.
The workshops will examine techniques for financial institutions to transform the increasing risk posed by environmental and social issues into commercial opportunity. The modular and interactive structure of the course will ensure high value for newcomers and for financial professionals with experience in ESG issues.
OPPORTUNITIES
Innovative power generation strategies, clean tech, sustainable transport and organic farming investments are growing
New financial tools can increasingly be used to offset environmental risks and create new tradable products
