May 22, 2024 | 11:15 AM - 12:30 PM

Description
A range of challenges confront policymakers and financial institutions aiming to foster responsible investment in the minerals required for the energy and digital transitions. The need for investment in the sector also evokes the ambitions of mineral producing countries to increase local value addition and promote green industrialisation pathways. Building on the opening panel and the 2023 Forum’s responsible finance session, this session will delve more deeply into the policy environment shaping obstacles to and opportunities for responsible investment. Such issues include corruption, the informal sector, adapting risk mitigation frameworks for responsible finance to high-risk jurisdictions and embedding responsible business conduct into critical minerals supply agreements.
