Nick Wood is an expert in the emerging field of climate change as a sovereign risk. Over the last 25 years he has purposely engaged with three key aspects that directly address this.

These aspects are:

•The design and implementation of carbon pricing mechanisms across multiple jurisdictions

• The development of effective and functional linkages between the national and global climate science capability and the financial system and,

• The promotion of aspects of governance, transparency and rigour required to manage the complex risks presented by climate change.

He has a strong track record of delivering innovative solutions across a wide range of climate policy issues to leadership teams in global businesses, to key decision makers in Governments and to international audiences.

At the core of his strategic work is the simple observation that climate change exhibits a deep complexity that presents serious challenges for both the Australian and global financial sectors.
