The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) will discuss the role of climate finance in the era of low-carbon transition and how the financial sector can respond to climate risks.


On September 2, the FSS will co-host an international conference titled 'Future Climate Finance in the Era of Green Transition' at Ewha Womans University’s ECC Isambong Hall in Seoul.


The conference will share examples of transition finance policies from major financial authorities abroad and introduce strategies for managing climate risks, including transition and physical risks, by financial authorities and companies. The FSS will also announce its plans for setting climate scenarios and conducting stress tests.


The FSS expects this event to enhance the financial sector's capacity to manage climate risks and contribute to strengthening the domestic economy's resilience against climate crises through low-carbon transition.


Following the conference, an AI challenge and a recruitment briefing will be held to support young people's entry into the fields of future finance and green finance.


During the AI challenge, participants will present financial service ideas utilizing AI technology, with industry representatives providing feedback on the feasibility of their projects. Outstanding teams will receive scholarships and preferential hiring opportunities.


About 15 major financial companies will participate in the recruitment briefing to introduce the qualities they seek in candidates and offer advice to assist with employment.
