GC Webcast: What is private equity doing to combat climate change?
About
There is little doubt that climate change is the hot topic of discussion for now and the foreseeable future. We have heard politicians’ pontifications on the subject, but it is becoming increasingly clear that more needs to be done.
The financial sector has a key role in addressing this Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issue. Pressure to invest sustainably, into businesses which support people and planet, has been mounting for several years.
Join Global Custodian and Apex Group for this timely discussion, exploring the key issues facing financial institutions and how private equity is stepping up to the challenge.
