Climate Risk, Green Finance, and Sustainable Development

Climate change has become increasingly prominent in various financial and economic activities. The growing risk of climate change calls for the coordination among policy makers, regulators, investors and non-governmental organisation (NGO) to promote sustainable growth. Major central banks have proposed to incorporate the climate risk in the design and implementation of monetary policies. Governments all over the world have pledged to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency. With the power of capital, investors have also joined the campaign to save the planet by rewarding environmental responsible firms while punishing polluted ones. NGOs play a key role in enhancing the environmental and climate change literacy, fostering corporate environmental responsibility, and coordinating various resources to promote sustainable growth. How to coordinate different climate players to optimize the path towards net-zero emissions and achieve sustainable growth? How can sustainable policy making and socially responsible investing contribute to climate mitigation and adaption? This panel seeks to address these questions.
