Listen "The private sector’s key role"
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.Accelerating the decarbonisation of our economy is becoming increasingly urgent. Existing climate action falls short of what is required—a priority to be confronted at the upcoming COP28 negotiations.To help address this, private sector institutions have a key role to play. Investors are facing the huge task of embedding decarbonisation into capital allocation and everyday decision-making.Achieving the mindset required to manage these changes and prioritise long-term sustainability will require investment, leadership and cultural change.They will also have to overcome inconsistent government policies, shifting political priorities, and everchanging economic realities.To discuss this, David Weston is joined by Gillian Lofts EY’s global financial services sustainable finance leader, and Masayuki Takanashi, group chief sustainability officer at the Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group.Enjoy the show.Complimentary access for one month - join the debate!We are delighted to extend an exclusive invitation to you to access FORESIGHT Climate & Energy's community of energy transition enthusiasts and experts.Sign up here, download the award-winning app, and enjoy complimentary access to all exclusive features.
