From Egypt to the World: Financing the Net-zero Transition

Facing headwinds including an energy crisis, war in Europe, and inflation - how can actions at a national and global level address the climate crisis through financing a resilient, affordable and orderly net zero transition?

Against this backdrop, COP27 is a critical moment for policymakers, business leaders and finance to recommit to climate action and unlock capital to support real world decarbonisation. Coinciding with COP27 finance day, the Financial Times, in partnership with HSBC, was delighted to host this webinar that looked at how we can rewire the global economy and deliver the US$120trillion of investment required to reach net zero by 2050.
