Collaborating to manage and finance the climate transition | Ivan Frishberg

Every day, the alphabet soup of climate and ESG-related NGOs seems to thicken. But their respective raisons d’etre can seem like a mystery for all but the closet of insiders. To help unravel the role of each of these organizations in the broader social movement and policy push for urgent climate action, Chad Reed speaks with Ivan Frishberg, the chief sustainability officer of Amalgamated Bank and a pioneer of climate collaboration for big banks and corporates. Given his historically central and successful role in driving industry collaboration on climate action, Ivan provides key insights into the current state of this evolving landscape, delves into the hot topic of divestment versus engagement, and discusses the merits and significance—or lack thereof—of the so-called ESG backlash. Links:Amalgamated Bank 2021 Corporate Social Responsibility ReportScience Based TargetsIvan Frishberg on TwitterEpisode recorded: December 19, 2022Email your feedback to Chad, Gil, and Hilary at [email protected] or tweet them to @ClimatePosiPod.
