SUMMARY:Banking on it: applying principles of responsible business conduc
 t in\, by and to the financial sector
DESCRIPTION:Business and human rights are gaining prominence in the finan
 cial sector. This is true not only in project finance\, where these issu
 es have played a significant role for some time\, but also in other acti
 vities\, including lending. This session will address developments that 
 are bringing about a shift in the financial sector towards a more pervas
 ive business and human rights-orientated approach. Those interested in t
 he financial sector should be aware of such developments that could shap
 e the future of financing. For example\, there could be implications for
  the status of financial agreements in which these topics are not promin
 ently addressed but finance has nevertheless been provided. The session 
 will address these and other emerging topics in this field.
