Expert Workshop - Finance & Climate

11 July 2016 | University College London (UCL), London, UK

On 11 July 2016, University College London (UCL) and 2 Degrees Investing (2DI) will hold an informal discussion workshop with a limited number of experts and key decision makers in London, in order to discuss the future of green bonds, (China's) green credit guidelines, the role of stock indices, the potential greening of prudential rules, and the role of institutional investors in climate finance, amongst others. The results from this workshop will feed into GREEN-WIN research efforts and aim to challenge the key findings and conclusions from research undertaken thus far.
