The United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) is a partnership between the UN and the finance sector to promote sustainable finance. Its goal is to encourage banks, insurers, and investors to adopt environmental and social responsibility in their operations and investments. By sharing knowledge, best practices, and frameworks, UNEP FI helps financial institutions integrate sustainability into their decision-making, aiming to support a transition to a more sustainable economy that benefits both people and the planet. In essence, it seeks to align financial practices with environmental goals.
