In addition, a panel discussion will be held on "Coordination Between ESG and Other Government Targets", aiming to help achieve better welfare for our economies.

RUC's leader (to be confirmed) and Prof Timothy Clark, SMU Provost, will deliver opening remarks in the first part of the Forum’s programme.

In the keynote speech segment, senior experts from the Ecological Finance Research Centre of RUC, SMU Lee Kong Chian School of Business (LKCSB), BNP Paribas, and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) as well as related policy specialists will share their insights.
