Event Overview

The funding of the energy transition will require coordination between commercial banks, asset managers, the pension and insurance industries and governments. There needs to be a pragmatic approach taking into account the urgency for change and the practicalities that the global economy needs to function efficiently.

Open dialogue is required to ensure that systemic energy failures like we see in the EU are not repeated to the detriment of all citizens. Sustainable finance must be at the forefront of ending greenwashing and ensuring solutions for utilising capital for true impact. Our three-day virtual forum will explore all the issues and solutions for the most basic question. How can the financing of sustainability improve for the good of all?

We covered six verticals over three days, touching every facet of financing the energy transition and decarbonization, and we welcome your participation.

An honest appraisal on Capital for Impact
When many capital allocators believe words are nothing more than marketing slogans to gather assets and fees, the Asset Management Industry has done a disservice, losing sight of the true intention of impact investing. When skepticism over the true intention of investment managers prevails, there needs to be a collective effort to win back the trust of retail and institutional investors alike. It starts with a critical assessment of progress and how truly impactful our investments are.
