Are SMEs being overlooked at COP26? COP26 - UN Climate Change Conference is finally underway, and on Wednesday the focus turns to finance, as delegates come together with the goal of mobilising public and private finance at scale. COP is heavily focused on governance and the actions that governments need to take. Unfortunately, we cannot wait for hundreds of governments worldwide to negotiate an agreement. Instead, we need to pursue market-led solutions. While big corporations can dedicate whole teams to meeting net zero targets and complying with regulations, SMEs don’t have the capacity to process this. We have a web of regulations and goals that are difficult for large companies to comply with, and virtually impossible for SMEs with fewer staff and resources. It is therefore vital that we place small businesses at the heart of the conversations around mobilising finance.
