Why Financial Products and Services?
Directs the Flow of Resources:
The financial sector determines which sectors and business models investments and capital will be directed to. Sustainable finance channels resources to projects essential for transformation, while steering away from carbon-intensive and high-risk investments.
Facilitates the Management of Climate and Social Risks:
Financial products that incorporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria integrate sustainability risks—such as the climate crisis, human rights violations, and social inequalities—into financial analysis processes.
Makes Impact Measurable:
Green bonds, social impact funds, and sustainable investment instruments prioritize positive environmental and social outcomes alongside financial returns, making these impacts measurable and reportable.
Encourages Transformation in the Real Sector:
Banks, insurance companies, and investment funds guide companies toward more sustainable practices through their lending policies, risk assessment processes, and investment criteria.
Supports Inclusion and a Just Transition:
Sustainable finance solutions enhance financial access for inclusive target groups—such as women entrepreneurs, small-scale producers, and green start-ups—paving the way for a fair transition.
Accelerates National and Global Alignment Processes:
Alignment with global frameworks such as the Green Deal, sustainable finance taxonomies, and reporting standards is advanced through the financial sector, promoting widespread adoption.
