EY’s response and support to our Clients
The world is facing one of the biggest challenges of humankind – constant changing of climate under today’s way we conduct economic activities. Governments and public sector in general are increasingly stepping into the role of securing sustainable development in line with the Paris Agreement, and companies and financial institutions alike are required to embrace new sustainable practices while departing from business as usual.
When the financial services industry works well, it creates growth, prosperity, and peace of mind for hundreds of millions of people. No other industry touches so many lives or shapes so many futures. At EY Financial Services, we share a single focus — to build a better financial services industry, not just for now, but for the future.
Sustainability is at the heart of our EY brand. It is at the heart of our strategy, what we value and measure and what we do every day with our clients and within our own business. We are proud to be advocates of change to make businesses across the world more sustainable because we believe in long-term value. Delivering sustainable long-term value in Financial Services means new strategies, a new approach to managing risks, new products and services and new ways of engaging stakeholders.
EY is currently working across the capital markets globally with institutional investors, banking, private equity and insurance clients, developing strategies, designing and building innovative solutions to move forward on sustainable finance, meeting regulatory requirements and positioning for success in this rapidly evolving market.
