In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we're on the ground at the GreenFin conference, which convened stakeholders from across the green finance ecosystem. We hear from panelists and attendees about key themes from the event — the challenges of closing the climate financing gap; how 2023 is "the year of the transition plan;" and the importance of translating sustainability topics for a broad audience, including employees, investors and the public at large.
In the episode we speak to:
-Aeisha Mastagni, Portfolio Manager in the Sustainable Investment and Stewardship Strategies unit of big US pension fund California State Teachers' Retirement System (CalSTRS)
-Tobi Petrocelli, Head of Sustainability and Transition Finance Strategy for MUFG Americas, a division of large Japanese bank Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG)
