Money for Change | Triodos | What is the role of finance in addressing climate change?
Welcome to Money for Change, a brand-new podcast from Triodos Bank! In this weekly podcast, the Impact & Economics team will share insights and challenges related to our core question: how can we transition to a more balanced and just world?
Each episode, we’ll be joined by Hans Stegeman, Triodos Bank’s Chief Economist. Together, we’ll dive into various topics and current affairs related to this overarching question, exploring ways in which these necessary changes might be realized.
Today we dive into the 29th conference on climate change which is currently underway in Baku. As the current conference is often referred to as the ‘Finance Cop’, it is self-evident that it has our special attention. To help us navigate the latest developments, we’re joined by Hilde Stroot, climate justice expert at Oxfam Novib, who is reporting live from the conference. She’ll share the latest insights from Baku and give us an update on what’s been happening. Furthermore, we’ll explore the concept of climate finance by discussing what it is and who we believe to be responsible for providing the billions of dollars needed to address the climate crisis. We’ll look at the different types of funding, where the money is actually going and the dynamics between developed nations and vulnerable countries that need to be supported.
Hans will elaborate on the subject by giving some hopeful news which functions as an example of how we can fund money for climate change in the future.

By now, everyone has heard the news: Donald Trump will once again be the president of the United States. While much has already been said and written about his electoral victory, there are still some important unanswered questions. In this episode, we’ll explore why the U.S. president plays such a central role in the global economy, and how Donald Trump is likely to approach this position.
We’ll also discuss what his election means for the EU’s economic standing and the various sustainability and social transitions. What would be an appropriate response from the EU to counter negative effects? How can we keep pace in the much needed social and environmental agenda that the EU has
Finally, Hans will give us a brief outlook on the climate conference in Baku, which started this week.
