Sustainable Nation works closely with the Irish Department of Finance to deliver its International Financial Services (IFS) Strategy 2020. [pdf 1.20MB] The Paris Climate Agreement Meeting (COP21) placed climate change firmly in the heart of the global financial system, putting an emphasis on how the trillions of dollars required to mitigate and adapt to climate change could be mobilised. This reflected the realisation that holding global warming below the accepted 2oC target would require an unprecedented reallocation of capital. In this context we are keen to work with companies that are developing innovative financial solutions or analytical tools that bring value and support meeting the 2oC target – all underpinned by the concept of responsible investment or ESG (environmental social governance).
