Bloomberg is bringing together more than 1,200 financial, business and policy decision-makers to help chart a course for moving sustainable financing practices into the mainstream at the first-ever Sustainable Finance Week.
The event, which runs in New York from Dec. 3-7, is set to cover such topics as good governance and the role of boards, investing in gender equality, ESG (environmental, social and corporate governance) in emerging markets and the emergence of new products and platforms that address sustainable finance.

Speakers at the two-day (Dec.3-4) event will include Nuveen CEO Vijay Advani, Full Harvest founder and CEO Christine Moseley and Female Factor CEO Bridget Brennan.
Other events include Moving the Market: SASB Sympoium on Dec.4, RI Americas on Dec. 5-6 and the IR Magazine/Corporate Secretary ESG Integration Forum on Dec. 6.
