Please join S&P Global Ratings’ analysts for a live webinar presenting our research findings on the theme of climate transition. First, we present our latest research on how the climate policy paradigm is shifting towards a model in which economic growth and decarbonization can coexist. Then we explore how one of the key hard-to-abate sectors – metals – is positioned to manage potential credit risks stemming from its decarbonization challenges. 

Key discussion points:

• How focus of climate policy has expanded to include not only the costs of the energy transition but also opportunities, but hurdles remain for further growth and decarbonization. 
• Why metals companies face a technologically complex and lengthy transition, and our view on the key drivers of credit quality for global metal producers, the key mitigants they might have and the specific challenges they face as regional carbon-related legislation are uneven around the globe.
