Ep. 156: The Supervision of Financial Institutions' Climate-related Transition Planning

There is an increasing focus on the role of financial institutions in contributing to climate-related change as a result of their financing of the activities of customers and counterparties. A key element in financial institutions’ efforts to limit their contributions to climate-related change is the development of transition plans.This Toronto Centre Note and accompanying podcast focuses on two types of transition plans: those focused primarily on strengthening financial institutions’ own internal risk management in the face of climate-related change, and those aimed at reducing institutions’ own contributions to such change.Speaker: Paul Wright, Program Leader, Toronto CentreHost: Demet Çanakçı, Senior Program Director, Toronto CentreRead the transcript here (https://torcentre.sharepoint.com/:b:/s/Files/Ee6QHH9SnFdEi4y_DLVSMQ4BLLfEwTnIpX-LQ7xr9x5vRw?e=dR4jOG). Read their biographies here (https://torcentre.sharepoint.com/:b:/s/Files/EUPohp5l8jZJrHj4JZFR3dwBV-oZ_cbtd42xBRflvt50iQ?e=Qaouy0).
