Circular Economy: The Role of the Financial Sector

The IFC Green Banking Academy (GBAC) in Europe and Central Asia and Latin America and the Caribbean invites you to a webinar Circular Economy: The Role of the Financial Sector which will take place on Wednesday, May 21 at 15:00 – 16:30, Central European Time (GMT+2).

The transition to a circular economy is an urgent necessity to enable resilient and sustainable economic growth. For such a transition, a fundamental transformation is needed not only of the private sector businesses and value chains but also of the financial sector as it plays a critical role for financing circularity-related projects and activities. Currently, the financial sector is insufficiently equipped to deliver circular economy investments at the scale needed. A key bottleneck is the low understanding by financial organizations of the circular business models and the existing business opportunity. So, how can the financial sector become more proactive to unlock scalable circularity investments? And what support to financial institutions can IFC provide to facilitate such investments?
