Transition Finance and the Path to Industrial Responsibility
Event Photos
Event Overview
Achieving environmental progress requires all sectors and industries to transition to principles that put people and the planet first.
Decarbonising heavy industries and other carbon-intensive sectors is a crucial part of mitigating the effects of climate change. Transition finance can support the adoption of greener and more sustainable practices in these sectors.
Should investment be used to support all companies in the transition phase? For those receiving finance, how should policymakers, investors and financial institutions work together to monitor companies’ progress and ensure they are being held to account? And how can access to finance encourage sustainable practices beyond decarbonisation?
The Financial Times, in partnership with JTI, hosted a discussion for industry, investment and banking executives, regulators, and academics that examined how all industries can be supported in transitioning to more sustainable practices.
