The Sustainable Investment Forum Europe offers a crucial platform for finance stakeholders to navigate the challenges and opportunities of the sustainable finance market in Europe. The Forum aims to support the acceleration of growth while prioritising the transition towards a resilient, equitable, and sustainable economy.

In a time of economic uncertainty, inflationary pressures, geopolitical tensions, and regional fragmentation, it is essential for the financial sector to unlock the necessary financing to achieve a net zero, nature positive, and equitable economy in and for Europe. With regulatory initiatives like the EU Action Plan requiring investors to disclose their management of climate change risks, the collection of necessary data and metrics becomes crucial. The impacts of physical risk exposure vary geographically and across portfolios, but their significance is undeniable. Recognising the role of European capital markets in the path to net zero, the Sustainable Investment Forum Europe serves as a catalyst for mobilising and allocating financing, complementing bank lending and public investments. With the rapid growth of green capital markets, the Forum aims to enhance underlying capital market structures and minimise the risks of national fragmentation and greenwashing.
