The event presented the conclusions of the recently published UNEP Inquiry global report \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/unepinquiry.org\/publication\/inquiry-global-report-the-financial-system-we-need\/\">The Financial System We Need<\/a>\u201d followed by the French context through the presentation of the case study on France written by <strong>I<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4<\/span>CE<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The global report has charted how the full potential of the financial system needs to be harnessed to deliver the transition to sustainable development. Whilst the effects of the 2008 financial crisis continue to haunt the global economy, an unprecedented recognition has emerged of the need to shape a financial system that is both more stable and more connected to the real economy. Now a new generation of policy innovation is aiming to ensure that the financial system serves the needs of inclusive, environmentally-sustainable, economic development.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The French case study presents lessons drawn from the French ongoing experience in improving the integration of sustainability issues that could be shared with other countries. It focuses on both the climate-related issues that have recently received significant attention (Article 173 of the 2015 Law on Energy Transition for Green Growth) and their place within the development of broader Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues. The regulatory and actor-initiated dynamics that have shaped the last two decades have both led to the emergence of an \u2018ecosystem\u2019 of commercial, public and non-profit actors and experts involved in the appropriation and integration of sustainability issues across the sector.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The event concluded with a roundtable discussion between regulators and financial institutions on the challenges ahead and next steps.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>About the organizers<\/h3>\n<p>The Inquiry into the Design of a Sustainable Financial System has been initiated by the United Nations Environment Programme to advance policy options to deliver a step change in the financial system\u2019s effectiveness in mobilizing capital towards a green and inclusive economy \u2013 in other words, sustainable development.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>I<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4<\/span>CE<\/strong> is an initiative of Caisse des D\u00e9p\u00f4ts (CDC) and Agence Fran\u00e7aise de D\u00e9veloppement (AFD).

ii) ensuring the materiality and usefulness of the resulting information for financial actors; and iii) its ability to spark a larger dynamic with expanded impact \u2013 both in France and abroad.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"simple_button\" href=\"http:\/\/unep.org\/newscentre\/Default.aspx?DocumentID=26854&amp;ArticleID=35540&amp;l=en\">More coverage on the UNEP website<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Profiling Financial Innovation for Sustainability in France Date and time: 4 November 2015 from 5.30pm\u00a0 Location: French Ministry for the Economy and Finance, 139 rue de Bercy \u2013 75012 Paris &nbsp;
