Mark Carney, whose departure from his role as Governor of the Bank of England was announced yesterday, will leave a vacuum at the top of global policy making around ‘green finance’ and climate disclosure.
Carney, the former head of the Bank of Canada, will step down from the post in 2019.
In his letter to Chancellor of the Exchequer (Finance Minister) Philip Hammond, Carney spoke of his aim to “remodel the Bank to reflect its new, much broader responsibilities”.
