The Centre for Climate Engagement is partnering with Clyde & Co to host three roundtable discussions on legal issues related to sustainable finance. This is the final event in the series, and will focus on the intersection between climate change and investors' fiduciary duties.
During this roundtable, we will discuss the extent to which investment professionals must consider climate change in order to discharge their fiduciary duties. We will also consider the practical implications of these links between climate change and fiduciary duties, including potential risks and opportunities for investors and companies looking to raise capital. Finally, we will discuss ways of engaging key stakeholders on these issues to drive real change in the financial sector.
In addition to any other next steps decided at the roundtable, the Centre for Climate Engagement will produce a short written piece based on the discussion. Each event in the series will feed into a longer report to be published later in the year.
If you have any questions about this discussion or others in the series, please do not hesitate to get in touch with Nick Scott, Manager for Law & Climate Action, at nps32@hughes.cam.ac.uk.
