KEY ESG invites you to their event

Reaching net-zero in financial services: an introductory guide to the SBTi’s Financial Institutions Net-Zero Standard

About this event

In July 2025, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) released its first-ever Financial Institutions Net-Zero Standard. This landmark framework equips financial institutions with a science-based, credible, and robust approach to align capital allocation with pathways that limit global warming to 1.5°C and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.

For financial services, this Standard marks a pivotal moment. As active owners and long-term capital providers, private equity firms and asset managers are uniquely positioned to drive decarbonisation across their portfolios.

Join KEY ESG on 30th October 2025 for a deep-dive into the new Standard, featuring expert speakers Peter Uhlenbruch and Marco Swan from the SBTi. The session will explore:

  • The key elements of the Financial Institutions Net-Zero Standard
  • Practical guidance for private equity firms looking to set Net-Zero Standards
  • Investor and LP expectations driving climate accountability across their investments

👉 Don’t miss this opportunity to understand how financial services firms can use the SBTi Net-Zero Standard to embed credibility, drive portfolio transformation, and lead in the net-zero transition.
