Following the UK Government raising £10 billion for green projects through the sale of its first green gilt, the government released their plans for the coming years in Greening Finance – A Roadmap to Sustainable Investing.

The roadmap aims to:

1. Get the right information to investors and businesses, helping them to understand the full range of environmental risks they face and create.
2. Help tackle ‘greenwashing’. A UK Green Taxonomy will set out criteria that specific economic activities must meet to be considered environmentally sustainable.
3. Lower the barriers to investors acting as effective and responsible stewards of capital.
4. Lead international efforts to bring about global and systemic change in the financial system.
