About this talk
Joint online event series with PRI and London Stock Exchange Group.
We would like to invite you to a London Stock Exchange Group and PRI online event series which aim to build momentum ahead of COP26 that will now take place in 2021 in Glasgow. Given the challenges society, economies & the world face in coming out of COVID-19 lockdowns it is critical for investors to address potential crises of the future, & as part of that to play their role to achieve green growth & recovery.
The three online events aim to support institutional investors to clarify what action they can take, to not only manage investment risk from climate, but also how they can have impact in influencing real-world outcomes.
