FSS-Ewha Womans University, Green Finance International Conference and Youth Recruitment Fair on the 22nd

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyo-jin] The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) announced on the 15th that it will hold an international conference on green finance and an 'Open-Up Recruitment Briefing' for young entrepreneurs and job seekers on the 22nd at Ewha Womans University ECC Lee Sam-bong Hall in Seodaemun-gu, Seoul.

At this conference, the FSS plans to examine the risks and opportunities that climate change, such as abnormal weather, poses to finance, and propose a sustainable green finance model that can respond to climate change through the convergence of finance and innovative technologies.

The event will be divided into two parts: Part 1 (International Conference) and Part 2 (Recruitment Briefing).

In Part 1, speakers from climate-related organizations under the United Nations (UN) such as the IPCC and GCF, the Bank of England, Google, KB Kookmin Bank, and FSS officials will participate to present innovative cases of climate change response and green finance.

Part 2 will feature startup consulting and recruitment briefings involving venture companies and financial firms to support entrepreneurship and hiring among the youth. Following this, the 2nd Artificial Intelligence (AI) Challenge competition will be held to spread awareness among young people about future finance, including climate financial products.

The event will be conducted via a non-face-to-face real-time video system to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The FSS plans to install about 250 monitors on-site to enable Q&A exchanges between speakers and attendees.

The FSS expects this event to serve as a forum to discuss the impact of climate change on finance and response measures, while also helping to alleviate youth unemployment by matching passionate young entrepreneurs and job seekers with companies, and presenting a blueprint for future finance.
