The sustainable finance category organizes articles about Sustainable Finance. Pages in sub-categories are represented here using two sets of matrices.

  • The first matrix takes a sectoral view and groups sustainable finance topics according to how they relate to different economic entities (individuals, companies, public sector etc) and their (formal) economic and financial activities (consumption, production, investment etc). Sustainable finance professionals typically specialize to provide services in the respective subcategories.
  • The second matrix takes a more fundamental view and groups topics according to sustainability objectives and available tools (in the general sense, including technology, financial instruments and policies). Objectives are derived from the UN Sustainable Development Goals


NB: Sustainable Finance is a rapidly evolving field and many concepts are still fluid, overlapping or poorly defined. The Glossary of Sustainable Finance collects some of these emerging initiatives and associated terminologies. Not all entries are yet available.
