BSA Audit, Risk & Regulation Autumn Webinar Series:
Climate change and stress testing, risk and reporting
Climate change is one of the biggest challenges of our time, and building societies have a role to play. How should societies capture the risks and model long dated scenarios? Most societies are exempt from TCFD disclosures, but as socially responsible mutuals, what ESG disclosures are appropriate and proportionate without killing a rain forest to print them?
This year's annual update returns in a brand new format with a series of topical webinars covering key areas of audit, risk and regulation. These events are targeted at risk and finance executives, and their teams as well as non-executive members of Audit and Risk Committees.
