Pensions & Bank Accounts: Your Organisation’s Hidden Tools To Tackle Climate Change?

It’s time to start greening our pensions! Do you know where your pension money goes, what it’s funding, what it’s supporting? Is it damaging the environment or protecting it? Have you ever asked your bank who its lending money too and which industries its helping expand and support?

UK pension funds and banks fuel some of the world’s most destructive and unsustainable industries, from fossil fuels to weaponry and tobacco. At this critical moment in history, our money matters more than ever. Do we continue to invest against our values, and fund dinosaur industries of the past, or do we commit to building a better future for ourselves and future generations by aligning our money with our values?

Join us for a session with Make My Money Matter, a campaign co-founded by filmmaker Richard Curtis (Notting Hill/ Love Actually) empowering individuals and organisations to tap into the hidden power of their money to turbocharge their sustainable impact. In this session we’ll hear from MMMM’s Partnerships Manager, Jacinta Dillon, to learn about the critical role our money can play in the climate emergency and the practical steps to align your pensions and banks with your values.

We will also hear short case studies from iiE members, Redwood Bank and Cambridge & Counties Bank, about how they are greening their own operations and their investment strategies to meet the growing demands of increasingly climate conscious customers.
