Sustainable Finance powering Sustainable Development | Herry Cho | TEDxPickeringStreet

Sustainable Development is coming, whether you are ready for it or not. How is the finance community supporting this, and what more can be done? My vision is for financiers to empower industries and the economy towards sustainable development. I am the Head of Sustainable Finance in the Asia Pacific for an international financial institution operating in over 40 countries. My main responsibilities are: 1) the origination and structuring of 'green', 'social' and 'sustainability' bonds, loans and other financial instruments, 2) advisory on sustainability ratings, and 3) supporting the integration of sustainability internally into product, sector and country teams' activities.

[charlesyeomans]

Very good, a long time ago I met you on the airplane to Manila, and always felt you were special. I hope your message get's through, a good platform.
I have worked on these concepts with Leather and Cleaner Vehicles and people want it, but there is a lot of inertia.
Keep strong and carry the message

On a more macroeconomic perspective, sustainable finance brings a major leverage to financial stability (cf. Financial Stability Board and Task Force on Climate-Related Non-Financial Disclosures). Cheers from Paris!

Clear, informative and an absolutely inspiring speech

[karmatenzin]

Beautiful thoughts from a beautiful human!

[lumoncon]

Your story is my story, perhaps we should start a group of green former mainstream financiers!

[maycandelaria]

Great Talk. You inspired me to find, no demand for a sustainable bank for my finances. Thanks for helping out in my MM paper too on sustainable banking...

i spent the whole first two minutes of the video wondering what's wrong with my speakers.

[joelpetersson]

I laughed when she said that she went back to the real world. Not because she is right or wrong but because I feel the opposite when I go to less-developed places.

[nombregenerico]

Wow! The bias of this speech is unmatched.
1st. I travelled around the globe (by plane) and that changed my mind.
2nd. Quoting Blackrock as if they are sustainable or something.
3rd. That finale encouraging on invest on quantum computing, when they need to operate on temperatures near absolute zero. That's a lot of energy for cooling.
I didn't know this speaker before watching this video, but I don't trust her after watching this nonsense.
