Sign up for this eventIn this special briefing from Chapter Zero, the Climate Governance Initiative and the World Benchmarking Alliance (WBA), attendees will hear first-hand the Financial System Benchmark 2025 results and why the leaders are leading. The session will offer 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 in regards to governance and strategy.
The session will feature:
- Presentation – An overview of the benchmark results and top takeaways.
- Fireside Chat – A discussion with financial sector non-executive directors (NEDs) from top-scoring institutions, sharing their perspectives on effective governance and leadership.
- Q&A – An opportunity for attendees to engage directly with the WBA and NED speakers.
With a focus on readiness to transition, panellists will discuss how to advance leadership, resilience and protect company value. They will also share practical actions for FS NEDs seeking to enhance performance.
| While this briefing is designed for NEDs in FS, real economy NEDs and FS employees are welcome to attend. |
