Tim Hames, former Director-General of the BVCA,
gives his take on Guernsey's Sustainable Finance
Week.
It is hard to imagine crossing the Rubicon remotely, virtually
or by webcast. Yet a triumph of timing meant that Guernsey Finance
achieved precisely that with its Sustainable Finance Week agenda
– ‘Financing sustainability in the post Covid era: the
role of private capital'.
It was brave, bordering on bonkers, to persist with this
initiative at all, as in so many other instances, conferences and
events such as these have been postponed or cancelled. It was,
though, exactly the right call, as it allowed Guernsey Green
Finance to capture the spirit of thisextraordinary moment.
