Key takeaways

Chapter Zero, in collaboration with the Climate Governance Initiative (CGI), hosted a workshop during London Climate Action Week for non-executive directors and senior leaders of financial services firms. Delivered by Suzy Glass, Co-CEO of BRAE, the workshop explored how board members of financial services firms should communicate the business case for climate consistently and with conviction in the context of current geopolitical and ESG headwinds.

In this online session from Chapter Zero, the Climate Governance Initiative and the World Benchmarking Alliance​ (WBA), our speakers presented the Financial System Benchmark 2025 results and why the leaders are leading. The session offered Financial Sector (FS) Board members and executive teams a clear view of their institution's performance relative to peers and how this has been measured, particularly regarding governance and strategy.
