Kalin Anev Janse at COP29 - "Climate as core: Embedding sustainability in the operating model of financial institutions"

Contingent on a supportive environment, private financial institutions could facilitate as much as $3.5 trillion of annual financing between 2022 and 2050 to drive the climate transition. Embedding climate into the broader agenda and priorities of financial institutions will be critical to realizing this potential. Integrating climate into the way you work can range from developing detailed transition plans, to setting and disclosing net-zero commitments/targets, to incorporating climate risk in your risk management framework and defining more deliberate sustainable investment strategies. This session will explore where financial institutions can focus their efforts on climate and how to think about tradeoffs.

The panel discussion will be hosted by the McKinsey Pavilion.
