The day is divided into four key sections:
- Introduction:
In this first section participants are introduced to the overall concept of sustainable finance and to the more specific area of environmental and social risk in the finance sector. - Training exercises:
This is the core part of the Workshop. Participants are taught to identify potential environmental and social risks associated to the projects their clients seek financial services for. - Presentation of existing best practice:
Participants are provided with an insider view to how some financial institutions have already devised policies and standard procedures to analyze this “new” category of risk, presented with examples of best practice. - Final debate:
At this final stage of the day participants are invited to pool their thoughts in terms of what they consider to be the needs and next steps in order for their institution to be able to introduce or improve their environmental and social risk management systems.
