UNEP Finance Initiative

The UNEP Finance Initiative is a global partnership between the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the financial sector. Its goal is to promote sustainable finance by encouraging banks, investors, and insurers to incorporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations into their decision-making processes. This initiative aims to support a transition to a more sustainable economy by aligning financial practices with sustainable development goals. By fostering collaboration and sharing best practices, UNEP Finance Initiative helps create a financial system that not only generates profit but also contributes positively to the environment and society.
