Our Work With the World Economic Forum

Financing the Transition

Since 2020, Oliver Wyman has been a knowledge partner to the WEF Financing the Transition to a Net-Zero Future initiative, a multistakeholder collaboration to identify solutions that would accelerate financing towards innovative climate solutions for the key hard-to-abate sectors. The initiative has engaged financiers, industry stakeholders and public institutions to analyse specific decarbonisation technologies, develop mechanisms for different stakeholders to co-design solutions and identify policy interventions necessary to mobilize private capital.

Sector Transitions to Nature Positive

In 2023, Oliver Wyman will support WEF in developing and publishing guidance to support companies in prioritising their nature-positive business action. The work will set out priority nature-positive actions for four sectors – chemicals; construction materials; consumer goods; and meat, poultry and dairy, while exploring regional considerations and the role of financing. The actions will consider both reducing negative impacts on nature as well as unlocking opportunities associated with the nature-positive transition.

Advancing Health in Climate Action

In 2023, Oliver Wyman will support WEF on the Partnership for Advancing Health in Climate Action, aimed to set a global agenda, engage a network and promote awareness and uptake of research to catalyze action addressing the impact of climate change on global health. The partnership will release a series of reports in 2023 to bridge knowledge gaps on the interconnections between climate change and global health.
