A conversation about import tariffs, climate goals of companies and financial institutions, and how should Europe respond to Trump’s plans?

Interview with Sandra Phlippen, i.a. professor by special appointment of sustainable banking at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands.

NOTE: 16 min interview in Dutch . Set auto subs to your preferred lenguage. I normally try not to post videos, but I found this video relevant in these turbulent times and couldn’t find an adequate readable replacement.

The interviewer is somewhat annoying and disruptive, but it’s worthwhile. Also Dr. Phlippen mentions VonderLeyen’s speech in Davos earlier, which has been overshadowed by the many crazy statements of the current US Administration.

    Totally agree, reading the description of what they want to do sounds decent but it needs to happen. If the EU can be treated as a homogeneous entity for businesses that will really help make things less of a ball ache and the business can focus on their business itself

    Let’s see if they can actually make it happen quickly
