Financial markets span the world and are well positioned to play their part.
That is the other reason we are here:
- to find the best ways to work together;
- to develop integrated markets for sustainable finance;
- to coordinate approaches, but not duplicate our work or fragment markets.
I want to thank the founding member representatives for showing their support and commitment at today's launch of the International Platform on Sustainable Finance: Argentina, Canada, Chile, China, India, Kenya and Morocco and, of course, the countries of the European Union.
I would also like to thank our observers.
The Platform is open for any like-minded country to join: I call on countries across the world to join us and help make a difference on the ground.
It will help private investors to identify and make the most of environmentally sustainable investments. That way, the whole world can benefit.
