Webinar: integrity pitfalls in Sustainable Finance
Sustainable finance is growing rapidly, but doing the right thing is often more complex than it seems. Shifting norms, high expectations, and vague definitions create tensions that go straight to the heart of integrity issues.
On Thursday, Nov. 6, 2025, DSI and CISI hosted an interactive webinar in English that explored the three main pitfalls in sustainable finance:
- Managing expectations – Who is responsible for driving sustainability: companies, investors, or the government?
- Effective communication – How can we clarify the nuances and trade-offs in sustainable finance?
- Safeguarding integrity – How can we prevent rules and regulations from unintentionally blocking real change?
The webinar was based on our dialogue document “Between the Lines” (“Between the Rules”), providing insights and practical examples on integrity in sustainable finance.
Speakers
- George Littlejohn, MCSI – Senior Adviser, CISI (moderator)
- Rebecca Kowalski – Compliance Manager & Sustainable Finance Consultant
- Floris Mreijen – Director, DSI Foundation
- Harald Walkate – Founding Partner Route17 & Senior Fellow, University of Zurich
