Review the event
Presentation of the event
Sustainable Finance is rooted in the pledge that “doing well” and “doing good” can go hand in hand; that financial returns and positive social and environmental externalities can easily become complements; that finance is a positive-sum game. More than 30 years after the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro (1992) where the concept of sustainability has been defined, expectations as to the potential achievements of Sustainable Finance are higher than ever. But, at the same time, critical voices become louder: greenwashing, lack of tangible effects, the general lagging behind on climate targets, not to mention social ones.
Our Round-Table will assess realistically what can be expected from Sustainable Finance as of today, and what changes are necessary to increase its effectiveness.
