Listen "Defining transition finance"
Episode Synopsis
Talking Transitions is a new special podcast series from FORESIGHT Climate & Energy and EY looking at how the transition to a sustainable economy—both from an environmental, but also social perspective—is affecting three key areas: the energy and resources industry, the financial services sector, and Government.The Financial Services sector is looking to scale up its transition finance capabilities.There are a range of available mechanisms and different approaches being taken but it remains still an early stage development with incomplete and varying definitions of what forms a “transition finance” investment.Episode four of Talking Transitions was recorded in the Green Zone at the COP28 climate negotiations in Dubai. The panelists delve into the difficulties of establishing such a definition whilst avoiding greenwashing and how the culture of the finance sector is changing in its approach to supporting low-carbon investments.Editor-in-Chief David Weston is joined by Kazuto Kita from EY’s financial services team and Joost Vreeswijk from its tax team. Also on the panel are: Daniel Hanna, Global Head of Sustainable Finance for the Corporate and Investment Bank arm of BarclaysGrazielle Parenti, Head of Business Sustainability & Government Affairs for Latin America at agricultural science and technology firm SyngentaJenn-Hui Tan, asset management firm Fidelity. The City of London Lord Mayor Michael Mainelli also provides a scene-setting introduction. Enjoy the show.
