The FSC will host a green future session on the topic of green finance at the 2021 P4G Seoul Summit at Dongdaemun Design Plaza on Saturday, May 29, from 20:00 to 22:00 (Korean Standard Time). The special session on green finance will be available for online live streaming for anyone who is interested in watching via official websites of the 2021 P4G Seoul Summit, FSC and their YouTube channels.

The special session will feature discussions on the role of finance in fostering green recovery in the post-COVID-19 era. Speakers and panelists will include foreign dignitaries and experts from climate and finance-related international organizations and institutions, such as the UNFCCC, WEF, IFC, BIS, EIB, TCFD, GCF, GGGI and S&P.

FSC Chairman Eun Sung-soo will deliver opening remarks through which he will offer an outlook on the future tasks of global green finance efforts while calling for close cooperation from financial sectors across the globe to achieve carbon neutrality. In particular, Chairman Eun will introduce Korea’s green finance policies that have been actively pursued by the government as it announced the 2050 carbon net zero goal last year.

The special session on green finance will shed a new light on the important role of finance in responding to climate change. It will also help raise domestic financial sectors’ interest and participation in green finance efforts.
