| Abstract: |
This chapter provides an overview of the state of sustainable finance
activities and practices in Southeast Asia. It first reviews the emerging
landscape of sustainable financial governance and policy efforts for scaling
up funding for investments with green and social impacts across the ten member
countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). It
subsequently tracks the development of sustainable finance practices in
banking and capital markets in the region. The chapter also examines the
challenges in scaling up sustainable finance and investment and discusses
opportunities and actions that could be seized by ASEAN countries individually
and collectively. |
