The COP26 summit has brought governments, civil society and the private sector together to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
Crucial issues such as the mobilization of effective private and public sector engagement, how private finance might be used to address barriers that prevent investments from materializing, the key role of the financial services sector (banks, insurance, asset managers) in supporting the transition to a resilient net-zero emissions economy, the necessary policy and regulatory changes, and other major issues will be discussed in the light of the COP26 meetings by BWC members and partner organizations who attended the conference and have an active role in climate action.
This event is for BWC members only. To learn more about membership, please contact us at secretariat@brettonwoods.org
