Sustainable Finance: Paving the Way for ESG Compliance at the London RegTech Forum

At this year's RegTech Forum, Charlie Quarterman, Regulation Solutions Lead at Suade, moderated a panel focusing on sustainable finance—a topic increasingly gaining prominence in the financial sector. 

The discussion highlighted the critical need for education on sustainable finance at both board and management levels, urging organisations to prepare for the future to avoid surprises in 5-10 years.

Key barriers identified included the lack of standardisation in data, which complicates the comparison of risks across institutions. The panel emphasised that consistent metrics are essential for effective ESG compliance and that global standardisation is a must-have.

Panelists included: Adrianna Enab, Advisory Board Member of The Digital Dollar Project; Yaroslav Sovgyra, Head of ESG Risk at Lloyds; and Paul Kennedy, Chief Risk Officer at Bank ABC.
