Snapshot of the Green Finance cover
“Sustainable Finance market in the UK and Portugal – A contemporary snapshot” is a report to identify green finance products available in the Portuguese and British markets and foster future collaboration between the two countries in this sector.
The study analyses the role of green finance products towards sustainability, a fundamental tool to enable countries to reach their carbon neutrality commitments and to accelerate a transition to a green and inclusive economy.
In Portugal, sustainable finance market is at its early stages. In 2019, the “Letter of Commitment to Sustainable Financing” in Portugal and the document “Guidelines to Accelerate Sustainable Financing in Portugal” were signed by major sector players. These commitments are contributing towards accelerating the incorporation of sustainable finance practices within the core business of the financial players.
