The Future: Green and Sustainable Finance

Tuesday 1st October 2019

Joint event with the Chartered Banker Institute, the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment (CISI) and the CFA Society UK.

Green finance both supports the transition to a sustainable, low carbon world and helps financial institutions and their clients manage climate-related and other environmental risks. The Green Finance sector is growing rapidly, particularly in the UK, with the launch of the UK Government’s Green Finance Strategy and the new Green Finance Institute in July this year. Join us to explore how Green and Sustainable Finance are not just helping shape the future – they are the future of finance.

Speakers

Simon Thompson (chair), Chief Executive, Chartered Banker Institute and Editor, Green Finance Principles and Practice

Dr Luca Taschini, Reader in Sustainable Finance, University of Edinburgh Business School

Amanda Young/Eva Cairns, Aberdeen Standard Investments
