Financial risk is measurable, immediate and closely tied to profits — societal risk is broader, affecting reputation, stakeholders and long-term license to operate. Yet in today’s interconnected world, social issues can quickly translate into financial impact. This panel explores how areas such as investment management, corporate finance and risk management can identify, quantify and act on societal risks without losing sight of financial performance.

Expect practical frameworks, real-world examples and debate on how impact investing, ESG and social considerations are reshaping modern risk management.
