Transition Finance Research
Transition finance refers to financial activities and instruments that support the transition of industries, businesses, and economies toward more sustainable and low-carbon models. It focuses on providing funding and investment opportunities to facilitate the shift from high-carbon, resource-intensive practices to cleaner and more environmentally friendly alternatives. Transition finance aims to address sustainability challenges across sectors by mobilizing capital and financial resources to support the transformation of industries and economies towards sustainable practices, promoting a just and inclusive transition to a low-carbon and resilient future.
Within this context, the IIGF actively engages in a multitude of research and projects pertaining to this pressing subject, forging collaborations with institutions worldwide.
