About sustainable finance in the NSW Government
We are committed to contributing to and leveraging the sustainable finance agenda.
We aim to achieve this through strengthening sustainability in government operations and positioning NSW to become a sustainable finance hub, leading to investment, employment and a prosperous economy.
What is sustainable finance?
Sustainable finance is the integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into economic and financial decision making, to mitigate risks and realise opportunities for the lasting benefit of society.
This is aligned with the European Commission’s definition of sustainable finance.
