Executive Programme at the University of Oxford
"The Financial Assessment of Climate-Related Risks & Sustainability Regulations" is a one-day executive programme convened at St Edmund Hall, University of Oxford.
The programme is organised by the Oxford Centre for Technology and Development (OCTD).
It brings together a limited cohort of senior leaders from the banking and financial services sector for focused academic engagement and strategic dialogue on the evolving landscape of climate-related financial risk.
The programme is informed by international regulatory developments and emerging global best practice, ensuring participants gain perspective aligned with evolving cross-border financial and supervisory trends.
