Unlocking climate action opportunities

An hour-long preview of the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference (COP), followed by a 30-minute audience Q&A.

Ahead of the UN Climate Change Conference, this event offers insights into where meaningful progress can be made on international climate action. It will explore the evolving landscape of global climate policy, with a particular focus on how both physical climate risks and transition-related risks are shaping the decisions of central banks, fiscal authorities, and financial regulators.

By identifying areas for coordinated progress, the event will highlight how both advanced and emerging economies can promote a more resilient global financial system, foster sustainable growth, and advance the just transition toward a low-carbon future even amid ongoing geopolitical turbulence.
