This week James talks to the former Governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney.
Mark's term as head of the Bank of England ended in January 2020. Soon after, he was appointed as the lead financial advisor for the next global climate talks in Glasgow 2021.
Mark has been hugely influential in ensuring global financial markets understand their exposure to climate risk and develop strategies to avert them.
Alongside Michael Bloomberg, Mark established the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, which has influenced governments all over the world, including our own here in New Zealand where we have been looking at introducing a system of climate reporting for financial firms and listed companies.
As always, feel free to get in touch at james.shaw@parliament.govt.nz.
