Summary
Reflecting a growing consensus that broader financial initiatives beyond merely supporting green activities are essential, transition finance — aimed to support an economy-wide shift toward net zero — has gained significant attention in recent years. An ADBI survey of Asian financial authorities revealed that many countries have implemented various measures including taxonomies, to advance transition finance. However, progress varies significantly in the approaches and measures adopted. This session will focus on recent practices and the challenges faced by Asian financial regulators, calling for regional-level discussions to promote some convergence.
