Ep 24: Banking on a Sustainable Future - Annabel Bishop

How should banks be thinking about climate change? That’s what Michael Avery wanted to find out when he sat down with Investec’s Chief Economist, Annabel Bishop. Applying her over 23 years of experience at Investec, Annabel unpacks why banks track and forecast climate change, how they are addressing associated risks, and which risks she believes banks should be responsible for mitigating. She also shares her views on the evolving regulatory landscape around sustainability and how to balance the energy security of developing economies with global climate change imperatives.
