In 2022, BloombergNEF reported that global investment in the energy transition hit $1.1 trillion with 31% growth amid economic headwinds, and by 2024 ESG-related assets are projected to reach $53 trillion. With its leading sustainable finance industry, Hong Kong is set to embrace this new wave of investment opportunities.
Join us for this BNEF series, in partnership with Asia Society Hong Kong Center, to meet with influential executives to discuss climate risk, sustainable investment, industry decarbonization, and climate policies. Leveraging BNEF’s state-of-art Transition Risk Model, we will kick off this series by discussing how we can quantify climate risk, measure portfolio impact and optimize sustainable investment decisions.
