Awaiting the SEC’s Climate Rule with Experts from Baringa

As we await the SEC’s climate rule and California’s carbon footprint legislation, there is much to discuss for companies and investors alike to get ready. With us today to help discuss both the risks and opportunities, and share what they’re hearing from clients, are two experts in this space from Baringa: Cindra Maharaj and Hortense Viard. 

Cindra Maharaj is a Partner at Baringa, and an expert in finance, treasury risk, and controls, and helps firms respond to changing market and regulatory requirements. Hortense Viard is a Director at Baringa, and an expert in climate sustainability and strategy and focuses on helping global banks enhance their climate risk programs. Both are based in New York.

We chat through some of these critical issues and dig into the pivotal role of data in addressing climate regulatory issues, as well as discuss what the Inflation Reduction Act means for firms, why it’s important to remember that green companies aren’t absent of risk, and what boards do and don’t respond to when it comes to ESG.
