Sustainable finance and regulatory engagement

Home > Policy engagement and external affairs > Program Areas > Sustainable finance and regulatory engagement

The financial system has a pivotal role to play in tackling climate change and environmental degradation. Its full potential must be harnessed to serve as an engine in the global economy’s transition towards a low carbon economy and sustainable development.

We work with governments, central banks and regulators, using CDP data and insights to shape ambitious policy on topics including mandatory environmental disclosure, taxonomies, carbon pricing and Covid-19 recovery.
