“The European Union will stand by its commitments made under the Paris Climate Agreement. As part of this agenda, the EU was an early mover on sustainable finance by recognising that boosting private capital is essential for supporting the transition towards a climate-neutral and sustainable economy. By now, other countries have made substantial progress in this area. It is time for us to join forces and make sustainable finance go global,” Valdis Dombrovskis, Vice-President responsible for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union.
