AIMA APAC Webinar: ESG for APAC Asset Managers - Navigating Climate-related Financial Risks

Singapore China Japan Hong Kong Australia

AIMA APAC invites you to join our webinar on
21 January 2021.

In this webinar,  Leonie Kelly, Head of ESG and Impact Advisory services from Ogier Global, will be discussing the recent factors driving ESG growth in APAC, how to manage ESG risks and why climate-related financial risks are taking centre stage locally and globally. Managing climate risk has become a critical aspect for managers investment and risk processes, along with the ability to measure the impact of climate change.

You will also find an overview of policy and regulatory developments in the APAC region and the potential impact on asset management. We will reflect on Hong Kong developments including the recent SFC proposals to amend the Fund Manager Code of Conduct that would require climate-related risks to be considered in fund managers investment and risk management processes as well as to make appropriate disclosures.

We hope that our participants will walk away with an understanding of how these regulations will impact their businesses, gain a deeper understanding of what climate-related financial risks encompass and practical considerations for how asset managers can prepare for ESG integration and assess such risks.
