Policy toolkit

Government and policy maker interest in sustainable finance and investment has substantially increased over the past decade. The PRI recognises that driving investments towards sustainable, inclusive, and net-zero economies will require updating and aligning global regulatory frameworks.

The PRI produces research-based policy toolkits to support financial authorities with the implementation of financial policy reform that rewards long-term responsible investment, to the benefit of investors’ clients and beneficiaries and the environment and society as a whole.

Taxonomies are an essential tool that enable investors to substantiate their sustainability claims. As countries across the globe are at different stages of taxonomy development, the PRI has developed a toolkit to aid policymakers and regulators to achieve more effective and aligned taxonomies.
