To achieve the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement and to maintain stability in the financial system, the world needs to transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy. To support this transition, there is a need to undertake a vast reallocation of the investee capital from high-carbon to low-carbon assets, assets with negative emissions and assets that are resilient in the short, medium and long term. Financiers have a key role to play in this transformation because their day-to-day decisions can influence the behavior of “investees” (e.g. companies, clients, borrowers) in the real economy. Such an influence can include capital and research and development expenditure plans, the decision to retire (or not) high-carbon assets, or other aspects of corporate strategies. Similarly, financiers can influence the investment decisions of their clients due to their potentially broad-ranging roles as creditors, financial advisors or asset managers. The day-to-day decisions of financiers can have both positive and negative consequences on the achievement of climate goals.
