Banks play a pivotal role in advancing the green transition within the shipping industry. But how can these two critical sectors collaborate more effectively and foster greater transparency?
In this episode, Lora Jakobsen, Chief Sustainability Officer at ZeroNorth, engages in a compelling discussion with Michael Parker, Global Head of Shipping at Citigroup, and Paul Taylor, Global Head of Maritime Industries at Société Générale. Both Michael and Paul serve as key leaders within the Poseidon Principles’ steering group, with Michael acting as Chair and Paul as Vice Chair.
Together, they explore how strategic dialogue and collaboration can drive meaningful change, the role of expanded regulations in enabling green infrastructure, and the ways banking and shipping can jointly contribute to the industry's decarbonization goals.
Michael and Paul highlight how transparency initiatives like the Poseidon Principles are reshaping industry dynamics, enabling strategic dialogue between banks and shipowners, and fostering accountability to meet global climate targets.
The discussion also explores challenges and opportunities in green financing, from barriers like limited EU taxonomy-compliant vessels to the potential of sustainability-linked loans to drive change. Insights into alternative fuels such as green methanol and ammonia, and technologies like carbon capture, reveal both progress and complexity. Through initiatives like green market makers and forums such as COP and the Global Maritime Forum, the guests stress that collaboration and innovative funding mechanisms are vital to bridging gaps and accelerating the maritime industry’s sustainable transformation.
The world is in a climate crisis, and all industries must do their part to reach zero emissions. Maritime trade is critical to today's society but is responsible for roughly 3% of all greenhouse gas emissions. A future where global trade reaches zero emissions is possible. But how do we get there? In this podcast, we're sitting down with thought leaders to explore the inner workings of global trade, its massive impact on our society, and the obstacles it faces while navigating its way to zero.
