This episode explores the evolving role of procurement within financial institutions and how sustainability considerations are reshaping procurement strategies, incentives, and impact. We will discuss what "sustainable procurement" really means in practice, how leading organizations are embedding it into decision-making, and what skills, tools, and frameworks are needed to move from basic compliance to best-in-class practices, particularly in relation to Scope 3 emissions and broader ESG outcomes. The conversation is designed for professionals in sustainability, finance, risk, and procurement who want practical insight rather than theory. About ED4S
