Where ESG risk leaders connect, exchange ideas and make vital steps towards the new future of finance.
The Climate Risk Summit USA will take place in New York this October 19, gathering senior ESG risk management and investment decision makers from asset managers, hedge funds, life insurance firms, pension funds and investment banks in the USA.
Our Fall agenda will be steered by the Risk.net editorial team and our advisory board which cover the most pressing issues facing ESG risk professionals, guaranteeing that you gain new ideas, new connections and a new perspective on ESG risk management and climate risk.
2022 key ESG and climate risk topics included:
- Net zero: as the ESG trend continues to grow, more clients want assurance that their portfolios are not contributing to climate change.
- Carbon disclosure: with the growing demand for ESG data in order to become more net-zero, organizations are needed to participate in the climate movement.
- ESG data: discover what aspects of ESG can inform investors on a company’s impact on the climate, and their financial outlook.
- Climate risk modeling: help determine impacts on company balance sheets from paying damages, losses, or reductions in future potential profits
- Impact investing: asset owners and investors are choosing to use their capital for the greater good.
- Policy: explore what new regulations are expected in the future, and how to stay compliant.

Lloyds Bank – Commercial Banking
Supporting British businesses and the UK economy continues to be central to what we do. Growing our lending, supporting with day-to-day business needs and helping to protect you from the growing threat of financial fraud, are just some of the ways where we can support.
