Finance sits at the centre of climate resilience – a key insight from Professor Johan Sulaeman, Director of SGFIN, in his keynote address at the International Corporate Governance Conference 2025. Drawing on SGFIN’s research, he illustrated how financial systems connect three critical domains: local adaptation, carbon markets, and global capital markets. By expanding farmer financing, enhancing carbon market transparency, and embedding sustainability into investment decisions, SGFIN is shaping how capital can be mobilised to drive measurable climate resilience across ASEAN and beyond.
