In 2019, the British government published their Green Finance Strategy - looking at transforming finance for a greener future. The report looked at how the UK can be a leader in green finance, how the government can empower private finance to engage in clean growth - and more.

How can finance make the most of the recovery, whilst maintaining the goal of sustainability, and where are the emerging areas borne from the green agenda?
