Investing for Sustainability

Financial industry leaders recently met to discuss the challenges in reorienting investment towards sustainability. Finance has a central role in determining whether and how fast New Zealand and other countries transition towards net zero emissions, stronger sustainability and higher levels of well being. The international movement towards more responsible investment is growing.

This conference focused on two major challenges:

Creating a supportive legal, regulatory and policy framework in New Zealand
Taking sustainable investing into the public mainstream
