Matters Lecture

Sustainable Finance and ETFs
- A Portuguese Bank's Perspective

This lecture aims to provide an update of the current state of affairs in ESG investment in major global markets, as well as the ongoing concern of climate risk mitigation. Starting with a consolidatory view of the principal stakeholders in ESG investment, the section then explores the latest developments of the EU Taxonomy and the proposed EU Green Finance Scheme. Participants will gain a better understanding of what this implies to the ESG scene in Asia, the European investors’ latest priorities, and the ensuing opportunities. The session will conclude with a discussion on the bright spots of sustainable investments within Asia, and in which areas more cross-border interactions are expected to take place.

  This event will be conducted in English.
