Moral Money Summit Asia

6 - 7 September 2023

Preparing for a New Era of ESG

Digital & In-Person | The Westin Singapore | #FTMoralMoney

For environmental, social and governance (ESG) norms to integrate satisfactorily into Asia’s business and society, it is imperative for policy, principle and profit to come together. The region trails both Europe and the US in developing a holistic ESG framework and in curbing some harmful climate, governance and social practices. This poses a knotty problem for investors and businesses, because Asia is a core component of the global supply chain, a burgeoning consumer market and a growing source of wealth. But the region is starting from a lower base, and has robust potential for crafting vibrant ESG norms. What needs to happen to create realistic sustainability targets that take into account the region’s various risks, along with its opportunities?

The FT’s Moral Money Summit Asia will bring together corporations, investors, multilateral agencies, policy-makers and experts for a two-day programme that will address the important question: How can Asia’s decision-makers make the cut in this new era of heightened ESG awareness and action?

How do we create realistic sustainability targets that take into account the varying levels of development found across Asia?
What is the role of regulators in supporting a move to net zero?
How can blended, concessional and transitional finance support ESG priorities?
How do you ensure resilience during the transition to net zero in Asia?
