Event information

Our Planet: Too Big to Fail  is a film that explores the risks of inaction, the impact of investing-as-usual, and the role the finance sector can play powering a sustainable future. The film outlines the major challenges for finance in responding to the current pandemic and the larges crises of climate change and biodiversity loss.

This film has an all-star cast including Mark Carney, David Attenborough, Gillian Tett of the Financial Times, Hiro Mizuno of the GPIF (technically the biggest pension fund in the world), Steve Waygood from Aviva and many more. It is a powerful film and most compelling for those working in the finance community whether investors, asset managers, banking, insurance or for someone within a finance role in business. It is international in nature and leaves the viewer with five clear actions they can take into their organisations to get started.
 
The five key actions for the finance sector are:

1.Understand and mitigate the risks
2.Declare and halt your negative impacts
3.Consider all your stakeholders in decision making
4.Seize new opportunities
5.Build the new system we need

This virtual session will be facilitated by Francesca Sharp, ICAEW Technical Lead, Climate Change.
