Day 2 of the JC3 Conference started with the key note address from Datuk Syed Zaid Albar, the Executive Chairman for Securities Commission.

According to Datuk Syed Albar, for finance to be a force for change, finance itself needs to change. The private sector must step up to provide momentum for durable and sustainable transition. The approach must shift from avoidance to active participation, and sustainability must be at the heart of the financial systems. Green practices should no longer be viewed as a cost of doing business, rather, they must be seen as an essential component of a sustainable business.

Last year, the world faced the profound impact of another risk event on corporate health. However, COVID-19 also showed that the world has the collective ability to tackle an existential threat, with vaccines produced within a year. This same determination must be brought to bear for climate change, which scientists have long warned will threaten future generations. Additionally, the work of JC3 will be crucial in ensuring industry readiness and resilience against climate-related events.
