Exchanges have an important role in helping their markets meet the growing demand for climate-related information and in mobilising the finance needed to transition to a net-zero world. Since COP21 in Paris, exchanges around the world have continued to develop innovative strategies to make their markets more climate resilient.

During this technical session, we will discuss the climate-related work being undertaken by exchanges. This will include:

  • The challenges and opportunities for innovative new climate-linked markets and green finance products. 
  • The tools exchanges are innovating to boost the quality and quantity of climate disclosure. 
  • The specific targets exchanges are developing to contribute to a Net Zero future. 

Speakers in this session will include sustainability officers from SSE Partner Exchanges as well as technical experts from standard setters, investors, issuers, civil society and other market participants.
