New Zealand Passing a World-First Climate Reporting Legislation w/ Hon James Shaw: October 27, 2021.

Last Thursday it was announced that New Zealand has become the first country in the world to pass a law that will ensure financial organisations disclose and ultimately act on climate-related risks and opportunities. The requirement applies to publicly listed companies and large insurers, banks, non-bank deposit takers and investment managers. 

Zazi spoke to the Leader of the Green Party and Minister of Climate Change, James Shaw, to talk about this legislation in a little more detail.
