A number of fringe events will take place in support of Guernsey Sustainable Finance Week in the week commencing Monday 8 June.
Dr Andy Sloan, Chair of Guernsey Green Finance, said: "We very much welcome the extra support offered by these supporter firms and industry organisations. It demonstrates the substance behind Guernsey's offering in green and sustainable finance and these events are a valuable addition to what is now a very busy calendar for Guernsey Sustainable Finance Week."
