Financial Sector

The investment opportunities offered by a green economy transition amount to more than US$ 12 trillion. To truly unlock this opportunity, the financial sector needs to steer capital into green opportunity and align their investment strategies and plans towards developing a green economy.

The WGEO Financial Sector Platform aims to support forward-looking banks, investors, insurance companies and other financial sector entities in driving long-term, socially useful value creation and shift the investment decision paradigm towards green on a systemic level.

In becoming a member of this platform and by leveraging the partnerships it facilitates, financial sector players can enable the establishment and institution of innovative financial structures in support of green economy action while exploring the development of pioneering long-term capital mechanisms, frontier technologies, risk-sharing instruments, innovation support and capacity-building to fuel the future of the green economy.
