While capital is available, mobilising investment at the scale required remains complex. Costs, risks, and responsibilities are often unevenly distributed across producers, traders, manufacturers, retailers, financial institutions, consumers, and governments, each facing different commercial pressures and investment priorities.
Meanwhile, financing mechanisms such as sustainability-linked lending, blended finance, and transition finance are evolving rapidly, creating new opportunities while raising questions about scalability, effectiveness, and impact.
This session will bring together leaders from finance, agriculture, and commodity supply chains to explore how investment can be deployed more effectively, how risk can be shared more equitably across value chains, and which approaches are delivering both commercial value and sustainability outcomes.
What to expect from this type of session...
Main stage sessions, but not as you know them. Because we’re off-the-record, leading experts can speak candidly about their experience with what works, and what doesn’t. At least half the session is dedicated to audience insights and questions to ensure we tackle the big issues head on.
