Climate change is increasingly gaining shareholder attention. Recent academic research shows that institutional investors believe climate risks have financial implications for their portfolio firms. Investors are now using a range of different strategies to pressure corporations to get ready for a low carbon economy.
This webinar, organised in collaboration with the UK Friends of SSE, will feature a compelling panel discussion moderated by Maya Rebermark, Communications Director - Earth Commission at Future Earth, to discuss the topic of sustainable finance.
Dr. Emma Sjöström, Director of the Sustainable Finance Initiative at Misum will be joining us as a speaker. The panelists consist of Robert Vicsai from SEB, Carina Sillberg from Alecta, and Erik Wottrich from Tele2.
