Greenwashing is defined as the practice of overstating an organization's positive performance in terms of environmental and social policies, practices and initiatives, thus benefiting from an image of a sustainable company, and devaluing the environmental and social impacts of the business. This practice aims to influence stakeholder perceptions to the benefit of the company, particularly financial stakeholders (especially banks and insurance companies), and can influence credit or insurance decisions when evaluating a project or company.

In this webinar, we'll discuss how the risk of greenwashing affects the financial sector and the impact it has on companies. In particular, we will explore the related risks (reputational, misdemeanor) and what measures you are taking to prevent these risks from occurring in your banking and/or insurance business.
