This podcast delves into UNEP FI’s conceptual framework on the role of banks as enablers of sustainable development, highlighting that the bulk of their impact is indirect in nature and occurs primarily in their downstream value chain through their customers. Throughout the conversation, the discussion explores how financial institutions can measure their actual contribution by making the crucial distinction between practice indicators, which assess internal actions and policies, and impact indicators, which seek to capture tangible outcomes in society and the environment. Furthermore, the content offers a strategic perspective on dynamic materiality and the necessary preparations for the global agenda beyond the 2030 horizon, emphasising that the holistic management of these impacts is essential for risk mitigation and the identification of new financial opportunities
