With regulators and members demanding demonstrable climate change action to be incorporated into a superannuation fund’s governance, risk management and disclosure frameworks, embedding climate considerations into board decision making, and understanding and acting on the risks and opportunities that climate change presents should be a key focus of all superannuation trustees.
This workshop, facilitated by Sarah Barker, Partner and Head of Climate Risk Governance, MinterEllison, will equip you with valuable knowledge of the climate change risk and regulatory landscape, trustee’s obligations and responsibilities regarding climate change risk, considerations to apply in your own organisation and practical steps to enhance your climate change risk governance processes and structures.
At the conclusion of this critical face to face workshop, you will clearly understand why climate change risk is an essential consideration for superannuation funds when making decisions; what your obligations and responsibilities are regarding climate change risk; and the strategies you can use to address and manage climate change risk.
