Please join us for our upcoming Business for Climate Finance Initiative virtual session on April 10, 2023 at 9:30 am PST. The session is designed for leaders within companies who are interested in learning practical strategies to decarbonize their cash deposits and employee 401k plans using a Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI) lens to advance racial equity alongside sustainability initiatives.
The Business for Climate Finance Initiative (BCF) brings together businesses and investors to increase private sector investment in the transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient future. This initiative aims to mobilize private capital towards projects and activities that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, build resilience against the impacts of climate change, and contribute to sustainable development. BCF was launched with two goals in mind: to assess and disclose the climate impact of corporate cash deposits and retirement funds and to decarbonize bank accounts and employee retirement plans starting with a group of leading U.S. companies. It provides a platform for businesses and investors to collaborate and advocate for changes that will create a favorable investment climate for climate finance. This initiative also works to raise awareness and understanding of the opportunities and challenges in the industry and provides a network for knowledge-sharing and capacity-building.
