Climate Bonds Café: Financing Resilience in Asia: How DBS is building the market
Asia is warming at twice the global average, and as a region, has experienced some of the most severe economic and social impacts from climate-related events over the past two decades.
Annual costs associated with physical climate risks for companies in Asia are projected to reach USD 336 billion by the 2030s, but several structural barriers continue to constrain capital deployment into climate adaptation and resilience.
In this special video episode recording during London Climate Action Week, DBS Bank’s Kelvin Wong and Shilpa Gulrajani, as well as Climate Bonds’ Meggie Eloy, join us to discuss how Asia can move from resilience ambition to mainstream implementation, covering illustrative examples across asset classes and emerging markets.
