Sustainable business development based on ESG principles has become one of the key priorities on the global financial agenda. The implementation of ESG principles supports countries’ commitments under the Paris Climate Agreement and contributes to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

The financial sector plays a key role in implementing ESG principles by providing financing for the green economy and encouraging companies to transform their business models while taking ESG risks into account.

Accordingly, the introduction of ESG principles in financial institutions and the development of the green finance market are among the Agency’s strategic priorities.
