Path to ESG Webinar Series
As businesses and governments around the world plot a path to net-zero, our team of specialists across Bloomberg and BloombergNEF continue to shed light on sustainable finance by exploring the latest, most salient trends in ESG. Stay savvy on all things sustainability with our Path to ESG series — covering everything from carbon offsets and climate-transition strategies to regulation and thematic indices.
Path to ESG Series | ESG Regulations: Global Initiative, Developments and What’s Ahead
Duration: 56 Minutes
Regulators around the world are stepping up policies on the disclosure and differentiation of ESG metrics, part of a wider effort to realign economies and investments towards climate and social transition. Taxonomy, disclosure standards and climate risk assessments require corporations and financial institutions to act, but how will this impact capital flows?

Path to ESG Series: Scoring Transition Risks
Duration: 59 Minutes
Companies in heavy-emitting industries face substantial risks from a world transitioning toward a low-carbon economy, some are already shaping markets. This “transition risk” is becoming a growing concern for regulators, investors and corporations, and many demand insightful and forward-looking methods to measure such risks.
Bloomberg has developed industry-specific, data-driven Transition Scores to measure the performance of 192 large companies in the oil and gas, metals and mining, and power utilities sectors.
This webinar explores the specific transition risks for each sector, highlights the methodology and metrics used to assess risks and opportunities, and discusses the use case and main findings of the scores.

Path to ESG Series: Climate Transition Strategy for Investors & Banks
Duration: 63 Minutes
Increasing demands from stakeholders, regulatory pressure and heightened perception of the climate risks are seeing both the buy side and sell side setting climate goals more ambitiously than ever.
Striking the right balance of strategies for decarbonizing portfolios—including divestment and company engagement, as well as building new ESG-oriented financial products—will play a deciding role in whether companies' targets are hit or missed.
Join us for a webinar exploring recent trends for buy- and sell-side institutions in the decarbonization journey. We will give special emphasis to their unique financed emissions, as laid out in BloombergNEF's recent Climate Transition for Financials: Banks & Brokers, and Climate Transition for Financials: The Buy Side.

Path to ESG Series: Net-Zero Targets & Carbon Offsets: Joined at the Hip
Duration: 45 Minutes
Every day, new corporations are setting net-zero targets, pledging to reduce or offset their emissions. As of September 2021, 111 of the 167 “Climate Action 100 ” companies deemed to be the world’s heaviest emitters had made such a pledge, collectively aiming to cut emissions by 9.8 billion tons by 2050—or 20% of the global total.
While net-zero strategies differ, they all share one challenge: residual emissions, or emissions that cannot be avoided. Enter carbon offsets—verified emission reduction credits. As decarbonization pledges have surged, so has the offset market, with supply and demand reaching a record high in 2021 and set to grow 50-fold by 2050.
Join us as we survey the main drivers of offset prices, and look at scenarios that could see the market either grow to $190 billion as early as 2030 or remain relatively flat for the next few decades.
