First G20 Sustainable Finance Working Group (SFWG) Meeting

The first SFWG meeting was held under the Indonesian G20 Presidency late last month.

The meeting discussed three workstreams for 2022:
1) Developing a transition finance framework to strengthen credibility net zero/sustainability commitments by financial institutions
2) Scaling up sustainable finance instruments, focusing on improving accessibility and affordability (especially in developing countries and for SMEs)
3) Policy levers related to incentivize sustainable financing and investment

Results of the meeting will be further discussed at the Second Finance and Central Bank Deputies Meeting and the First Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors (FMCBG) Meeting this month.

Is there anything you think the SFWG missed? How can the G20 and other international institutions work towards the success of these three workstreams?
