Published on March 9, 2026

The Caribbean Association of Banks (CAB), in collaboration with the UN Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) and the Global Caribbean Blue Carbon (GCBC), successfully launched the Nature Reporting Preparer Forum an important new initiative jointly developed by the partnership.

This first of its kind programme is tailored specifically for financial institutions in the Caribbean and aims to build the region’s capacity to assess, manage, and disclose nature related risks in alignment with emerging global standards.

The opening session, held on March 4, 2026, began with remarks from CAB’s Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Wendy Delmar, who highlighted the importance of strengthening the Caribbean’s preparedness for nature related financial reporting.

She underscored the collective responsibility of the region’s financial sector to incorporate nature considerations into strategic decision making and to support long term environmental stewardship across the Caribbean.
