Leading Edge - Sustainable Finance: is green the new black?
Professor Carol Padgett features in an episode of Henley Business School's Leading Edge podcast, where she discusses dark vs. light green investments, the critical role of sustainable finance for the future of the planet and the economy, and how this is relevant to your personal finances.
The uptake and availability of green investments are fast-growing, but how do we tell the difference between sustainable finance and ‘greenwashing’? Is this just a space for investing ‘spare’ money?
Listen to Carol’s episode to hear her discuss these topics:
Genuinely green investments and green jobs
Risk – in terms of finance and the world we live in
Sustainability and the part it plays in our futures
