Briefing session on the NZ sustainable finance strategy
Overview
The New Zealand Government has committed to publishing a New Zealand sustainable finance strategy by 2026.
CSF has been invited by the Minister of Climate Change to make recommendations to the Government early in 2025, to inform the strategy.
We have partnered with CSF to ensure our members have an opportunity to provide input and feedback into the recommendations put forward to the Government. Please join us for 60-minute webinar to learn more about the strategy and have your say.
In addition to partnering with IoD, CSF is also partnering with other prominent peak bodies that you may also be a member of. If you receive a similar invitation from any of the organisations below the content of each session will be similar so you only need to attend whichever is most convenient for you.
- Sustainable Business Council (SBC)
- INFINZ
- Responsible Investor Association of Australasia (RIAA)
- Aotearoa New Zealand Stewardship Code
This webinar is free for Chapter Zero NZ supporters. If you wish to register or sign up, please email Gemma Fellowes
