What is sustainable finance?

Sustainable finance is the integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into financial decision making. This can include activities such as green bond issuance, impact investing, and the incorporation of ESG criteria into traditional investment analysis. The goal of sustainable finance is to align financial markets with the goals of long-term sustainable economic growth and social well-being. It is a way to ensure that the financial system supports sustainable development and helps to mitigate climate change and other environmental risks.
