On March 29, 2017, as part of the PRI’s 10-year Responsible Investment Blueprint, we co-hosted an event in New York with the PRI to launch their Sustainable Financial System program.
About the program:
The Sustainable Financial System (SFS) program aims to bridge the gap between the financial system of today and the sustainable financial system of tomorrow. The SFS program will address the risk and challenges that undermine financial system sustainability by putting in place a series of steps that will lead to change – with a particular focus on institutional investors and the intermediated investment chain.
Ahead of the event, PRI spoke with our CEO Steve Lydenberg and President and COO Bill Burckart. Click here to read the Q&A.
