Bloomberg strengthens sustainable finance leadership
Bloomberg has appointed Lauren Smart as Global Head of Sustainable Finance, elevating a senior sustainability data executive at a moment when climate risk, energy transition financing, and ESG disclosure requirements are reshaping capital markets.
