About the event

Ambitious efforts from all stakeholders are required to address the unprecedented loss of biodiversity. In the last five years, there has been significant momentum in the financial industry to understand its role, obligations and opportunities in this global goal. Sylvaine Rols is an environmental scientist with nearly 10 years of experience working with financial institutions and businesses on assessing and managing their impact on nature. In this talk, she will provide an overview of why, and how, financial institutions are looking at nature & biodiversity in the UK; and what it means for conservation initiatives.
