International Banks - Sustainability Forum This week I achieved one of my professional milestones: not only I was invited to a sustainability forum hosted by international banks operating in Brazil, but I was among the speakers - the 1st Sustainability Forum from ABBI. Definetely, environmental and climate matters must be in banks' risk and strategy agendas! Panel 1 was a real lesson with Luiz Awazu focusing on developments since the Green Sawn report from Bank for International Settlements – BIS was published, while Kathleen Krause educated us on the ESG regulation from Banco Central do Brasil and its updates, enlightened by the moderation of Fernanda Kantor. Panel 2 was a tour on experts' views, with Sandra Martins (Management Solutions) focusing on positive impacts from sustainable finance on a social and environmental perspective, while Fabio Coimbra, PhD (PwC Brasil) focusing on governance and resilience and I (EY) focusing on climate governance and the role of the carbon market, guided by the moderation of Vanessa Gomes who enriched our discussions with actions in place from Standard Chartered. Panel 3 was absolutely amazing with concrete experiences and views from the international banks brought by their ESG/sustainability leaders: Ariane Pevide (MUFG), Marilyn Ceci (J.P. Morgan), Dolph Habeck (Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation – SMBC Group) and Anjuli Pandit (HSBC), guided by the moderation of Vanessa Zequi (Banco Toyota do Brasil). Panel 4 fulfilled one of my professional wish list items: we had Sylvia Brasil Coutinho (UBS), Marcelo Marangon (Citi) and Fabiana Alves (Rabobank Brasil)- 3 CEOs (!!!) - discussing the tone of the top, challenges and concrete examples of positive impacts derived from sustainable finance, with brilliant moderation from Betina Ferraz (UBS BB). With the Association of International Banks in Brazil (ABBI) positioning itself as a relevant player to support Brazil in its transition to low carbon, bio and circular economy, this was the perfect kick off. From now on, there will be much work to be done. Mission accomplished! #sustainabledevelopment #sustainabilitymatters #sustainablefinance #sustainableinvesting #sustainabilityreporting #sustainablefuture #lowcarboneconomy #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #bioeconomy #sustainableeconomy #sustainability #circulareconomy #climaterisk #climatechange #climateadaptation #climatefinance #climatechangemitigation #climateaction #climate #climateemergency #climatesolutions #climatetech #climategoals #climatechangeadaptation #climatemitigation #sustainablefinance Matthew Bell Velislava Ivanova Charles Bunce Ruth Guevara Claudio Camargo Leonardo Dutra Mariana Faria Bruno Lopes Daniele Miranda دانييلي ميراندا

🗣 Our Co-Founder and CEO Ingmar Juergens was interviewed following the High-Level Workshop “Disclosure on Nature & Biodiversity within the #G20” at the Embassy of Brazil in Berlin. Ingmar was asked the following questions: 👉 Why is the G20 best placed to trigger transformative action to reverse biodiversity loss? 👉 What are the challenges to overcome, in terms of disclosure on nature & biodiversity? 👉 How can the financial sector be convinced to make the necessary changes? 👉 What first steps should the financial sector take if we want to achieve the goals of The Biodiversity Plan by 2030? 👉 What are the upcoming opportunities to ensure effective disclosure on nature and biodiversity? 🌎 This is linked to the G20 Sustainable Finance for Nature & People project, which we are working on with the support of the Post2020 Biodiversity Framework - EU support project, funded by the EU and implemented by Expertise France.

Brazil has the potential to become a global leader in the green economy and chart a greener path for the planet. To achieve this, a successful multi-stakeholder approach is essential. This approach must unite governments, investors, and policymakers. Together, they can unlock the immense promise of Brazil's green economy and finally make it a country of the future. Let's work together towards a sustainable and prosperous future for all.

Sustainability doesn’t have a chance if we don’t start regenerating ecosystems. Good thing is that #ClimateFinance has created new opportunities for investors and today profit can come from #NaturalCapital gains. Don’t miss #IDBInvestSustainabilityWeek as we demonstrate investability of nature assets and the vision Inter-American Development Bank has developed for our region as an ecosystem services powerhouse for the world. #BioEconomy4.0 #BioCredits #Debt4Nature #BlueEconomy #GreenInfrastructure #NatureClimateSolutions Gregory Watson Hilen G Meirovich Tatiana Schor Johan Lopez

For the next 18 months, all eyes are on Brazil as they host #U20, #G20 and #COP30. Last week, Antha N. Williams and I spoke to Valor Econômico S/A in #Brazil about the role of cities in slashing emissions and building resilience, and how strong collaboration with national governments can make the transition faster and fairer. https://lnkd.in/eXapfPRw

5 years ago, we stopped buying Brazilian government bonds due to the Amazon fires. It was a difficult decision, as climate-related risks in sovereign investments were not yet recognized. Since then, progress has been made, but challenges still remain in incorporating climate considerations into sovereign investments. The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) released a report highlighting these issues. Check out the "must read" report in the comments. #sustainability #climateaction #investments

Excited to see how our work slots into the initiatives launched by Mark Carney to scale the carbon markets. It's almost like it was on purpose... Our standard-setting platform and registry, the open carbon protocol supports the supply-side initiative of the The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM) Our work on rightsizing with Calyx Global and our work on the environmental ledger supports the demand-side efforts of VCMI and Global Carbon Market Utility with Filipe Blackwood Oliveira and Chris Canavan. This ledger work is an industry-wide collaborative effort with Ben Rattenbury from Sylvera, Sebastien Cross from BeZero Carbon, Donna Lee from Calyx Global, Alicia Seiger from Stanford University, Harvard University's Ely Sandler and Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Tod Hynes, Andrew Watson of Rethinking Capital, and now International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and Financial Accounting Standards Board . And so many others! It takes a village! One tonne of CO2e tackled today is more important than one tonne of CO2e tackled tomorrow.

🌿💸Brazil can be a hub for climate transition investments If Brazil implements significant changes in key sectors, such as agribusiness, while advancing its reform and pro-environmental regulatory agendas, it could lead the global climate transition. Businesspeople and investors championed this idea at the first Brazil Climate Summit Europe, a spin-off of New York’s homonymous event, held on Monday in Paris. They gathered at the Maison de L’Amérique Latine to forge partnerships capable of leveraging Brazil’s comparative advantages and turning the country’s bold climate ambitions to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 into business opportunities.

Delegates from 198 countries in Bonn for the UN Climate Change #JuneClimateMeetings have concluded draft texts for COP29. Some progress was made in several areas: 1. they have streamlined the content for the New Collective Quantified Goal on Climate Finance, aiming to finalize a substantive draft before COP29; 2. they advanced adaptation indicators to be forward-looking, effective, and scientifically sound; 3. Steps were taken towards improving the international carbon market (yes, I know) and 4. Parties collaborated for greater transparency and supported each other in planning stronger climate action plans. ***The need for decisive coordinated action among governments, private sector, and civil society to invulnerable climate challenges, remains an urgent task.*** I'm sharing our article, co-authored with esteemed climate experts Dr. Thelma Krug, Chair of the World Meteorological Organization Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), and Dr. Carlos A. Nobre from the Instituto de Estudos Avançados da USP, with valuable insights into the climate crisis highlighting multidisciplinary strategies to mitigate its impacts. The English version of the article is available at: https://lnkd.in/dbCUqBwZ Recent events worldwide highlight the urgent need for increased funding to address the growing inequality among vulnerable populations and governments struggling to adapt to climate impacts. While the loss and damage fund at #COP28 is a step forward, it falls short of requirements, and better regulation is essential for effective disbursement. Extreme weather events underscore the immediate necessity for adequate financing to support vulnerable communities and bolster their resilience to climate impacts. The intersection of climate change and inequality poses significant challenges to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda's national and global goals. Addressing these challenges demands integrated initiatives, robust climate finance, and enhanced international cooperation to ensure a sustainable future for all. #climatechange #sustainability #science #COP29 EY
