JP Morgan Private Bank’s Oliver Gregson provides an insightful look at leveraging resources for social good. The conversation is wide-ranging and delves into clients’ changing approach to doing good, the bank’s work, and Oliver’s personal narrative that includes social good, the environment and finance.
Sustainability, climate and the environment are personal passions for Oliver. Since his days at the University of Nottingham where Oliver graduated with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Environmental Biology, he has held a variety of roles over a 23-year career in Financial Services.
Oliver is a member of the UK Philanthropy Governance Committee of the J.P. Morgan Corporate Foundation, focusing on Small Business and ESG. Working with partners, he also co-leads the sustainability vision for the International Private Bank and established the Global Private Bank’s Sustainable Investment Summit.
Oliver is currently a member of the NSPCC’s Child Safety Online Taskforce, was previously a Non-Executive Director at Finance Earth, and previously a Trustee for Blue Ventures Marine Conservation. He was also a Council Member until 2020 of the Sustainable Markets Initiative, focusing on the need to accelerate global progress towards a sustainable future.
