Guernsey does not often get the chance to operate on a truly
global stage.
Although over the course of history our people have made a huge
impact in wars, establishing international trade links, the arts
and sport, it is rare that Guernsey, as a jurisdiction, has a
chance to position itself globally.
Though we will have no formal representation at COP26 in Glasgow
in November 2021, we will be there, hopefully in person, and
certainly in spirit.
Last summer we organised a week-long event, Sustainable Finance
Week, which should have taken place in Guernsey. Covid-19 put paid
to that, but we continued with the event over the course of three
webinars and three podcasts, with international guests.
