Roundtable lunch with Simon Zadek, Co-Director of the UNEP Inquiry into the Design of a Sustainable Financial System.

Action to promote green and sustainable finance continues to build with increasing engagement by market and national public actors, and through international cooperation. Simon Zadek will outline these international developments building on UNEP’s work through the G20 and now also the G7, the President of the UN General Assembly and other international and national initiatives, drawing on its latest report.

Simon Zadek will also discuss the waves of turmoil to the financial system that might dampen this momentum, including Brexit, the outcomes of the US elections and slow economic growth.
