HSBC - Transition to Net Zero?
My role at HSBC is to support the bank in its transition to net zero. I think energy security is an issue that had been dormant for a number of years and has come sort of racing back into the public consciousness with the events in Ukraine. There was a lot of concern from a climate perspective that this would be significant distraction on global efforts to reduce emissions. It's certainly put the balance between energy access, energy reliability and decarbonisation into sharper focus. But the conclusion that is generally being drawn by most people that I speak to is that these things are not mutually exclusive.
