Ethical Finance 2021
Ethical Finance 2021 was held between Tuesday 8th – Thursday 10th June 2021 and was themed “Financing a Sustainable Future: Climate and Beyond”.
The Summit began with regional showcases hosted in four global financial centres on day one. The focus moved on to climate finance and natural capital on day two, ahead of COP26. The third day explored the long-term future of ethical finance, looking at financing the Sustainable Development Goals, social impact (the “S” in ESG) and leadership for the journey ahead.
The summit was hosted by NatWest Group, and supported by Chartered Banker and CISI, as well as our Path to COP26 campaign partners the Scottish Government and UNDP.
