Last Tuesday we filmed Sarah Breeden’s speech on sustainable finance and central banks, at a session with Tony Hughes, Ph.D. and Paul Mizen during the 2021 MMF Policy Conference on Sustainable Finance, sponsored by ESRC: Economic and Social Research Council.

In her speech, Sarah reminded us of the Bank of England’s role in responding to climate change, of how much work has been done to better understand climate-related financial risks, and of how much work there is still to go to fill in the remaining knowledge gaps.

Sarah is the Executive Director for Financial Stability Strategy and Risk, a member of the Financial Policy Committee (FPC), and she also leads the Bank of England’s work on climate change, domestically and internationally, a role she has held since 2016.

Pushing ourselves to the limits in the workplace comes with adverse consequences.
