BUSINESS TALK - Olivier Levallois CARBON CLEAR
A perspective of climate finance for non-state actors
« Finance is a core element of the Paris Agreement. Countries have committed to mobilise billions to mitigate and adapt to climate change. While numerous economic questions evolve around the most efficient allocation of these funds, two other pressing issues relate to (i) the involvement of the private sector and non-state actors to contribute to the energy and environmental transition; and (ii) the behaviour change required from the financial sector to better manage their climate change-related risks and leverage public funding to finance the transition. This talk will address the first one from the perspective of carbon markets and the other from the perspective of financial institutions practices »
