This is a famous quote by Robert Swan regarding the environment. The imminent situation is the same for those who have been hit by COVID-19 directly, and indirectly. Started with a coronavirus, it has led to economic, financial and social suffering.

We take no chances in assuming that there is enough help. We are all out to galvanise the financial markets community and help the need with the creation of the FMAS Trampoline Fund.
