Program recorded May 7, 2020: Lang explains how governments, international and local banking systems, are working with Sustainalytics’ Sustainable Finance Solutions to issue sustainability bonds and loans to address two areas that are being particularly hard hit by COVID-19: Health Care and Socio-economic Impact Mitigation.
