Pleased to be representing Climate Bonds Initiative for this conversation with IFC - International Finance Corporation, Amundi Nedbank Absa Group and Environmental Finance on transition finance next week.
🌍🌿💻 Join Environmental Finance and IFC - International Finance Corporation for a free webinar that will discuss how transition finance is the driving force behind the global push to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, but it is particularly critical for emerging markets, where high-emission industries are deeply intertwined with economic growth. Without structured, sector-specific financial support, achieving global climate goals of net-zero by 2050 will remain out of reach. Transition finance presents a unique opportunity to scale sustainable solutions, but only if we address key hurdles such as just transition, taxonomy harmonization, and the creation of market infrastructure that is tailored to regional needs. This webinar, part of IFC's "Transforming Tomorrow: Empowering Emerging Markets through Transition Finance" series, will feature a practical discussion with market experts, sector leaders, and financial stakeholders.

Navigating Voluntary ESG Schemes: A Challenge? For decades, companies and financial institutions worldwide have relied on green building certification to verify the sustainability credentials of projects. However, inconsistencies in metrics and standards remain, and ESG schemes are applied differently by various groups. In the latest factsheet from the World Green Building Council’s #SustainableFinance series, we delve into both entity and asset-level voluntary schemes for energy and emissions in the global real estate sector. Explore the factsheet to: - Compare the differences between entity and asset-level schemes. - Understand the key international voluntary ESG schemes in real estate. As financial and non-financial disclosure regulations continue to evolve, alongside growing climate commitments from corporate and financial players, our factsheet provides valuable insights on how ESG schemes can help benchmark, report, and verify progress—ultimately fostering a resilient and decarbonised future for the built environment. Read the factsheet here: https://lnkd.in/exQPmykV And don’t forget to explore our additional factsheets on #EUTaxonomy, including Nearly Zero Energy Buildings, Major Renovations, and Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs). #BuildingTheTransition #ClimateWeekNYC #transitionfinance #greenbonds #sustainability Aishwarya Sankar, Marian Alejandra Rodriguez, Rachel Hemingway, Gabriela Constantin
