Andrea Moffat

Transitioning Canada’s high-carbon economy to a sustainable low-carbon economy requires strategic alignment of our financial policies and systems. To address this gap, Andrea led a collaborative to have the federal government create a Canadian Expert Panel on Sustainable Finance, launched in April of 2018, to bring profile, expertise, credibility, and create an action plan. She also led the effort to develop a consultation process for the Panel, which resulted in engagement of over 250 organizations from business, government, academics, NGOs and financial executives in development of the 15 recommendations for the Panel’s final report and is supporting the implementation through the creation of the Institute for Sustainable Finance at Queen’s University.
