Register now for ‘Sustainable Finance in Action: Private Capital’.

This year marks a variation in the well-established Guernsey Finance event, with this event exploring sustainable finance investment structures with a particular focus on funds, private wealth and the growing role of family offices.

Discussions will consider how fiduciary duty is evolving, including recent UK developments that encourage trustees and advisers to take account of systemic risks such as climate change, and what this means in practice for family offices managing long‑term capital. Discussions will also include the role of natural capital funds in addressing nature and climate‑related risks and opportunities, highlighting the increasing importance of understanding nature as an investable and strategic asset class.

Bringing together industry, investors and stakeholders from Guernsey, the UK and internationally, the seminar presents an opportunity to share practical perspectives and solutions, supported by Guernsey’s specialist investment funds and private wealth expertise.

The event will highlight Guernsey’s commitment to sustainable finance through its investment and private wealth industries. Guernsey is a world leader in sustainable finance, with two world first regulated sustainable fund regimes.
