Financing the Future: Green Macroprudential Policies across the World

Watch replay here. 

Climate change and environmental degradation affect the economy in far-reaching ways, including significant implications for financial stability and the future profitability of commercial enterprises. Green central banking has emerged as an important development to combat climate change-related financial risks resulting from the introduction of green prudential measures across countries. What factors determine the likelihood of the adoption of green prudential regulations? In this webinar, Ramkishen S Rajan of the National University of Singapore, co-author of the empirical paper “Why are Some Countries Greening Macroprudential Regulations Faster than Others?”, will examine the reasons behind the differential take-up of green macroprudential policies across countries.

The presentation will be followed by a discussion and Q&A session moderated by Professor Heiwai Tang of the University of Hong Kong.
