NRDC’s green finance initiative aims to encourage more capital flows to environmental protection, sustainable development and climate change mitigation. For stimulating the green finance engine, NRDC focuses on promoting environmental information disclosure among financial institutions, emission enterprises and listed companies； leveraging retail banking capitals in support of low-carbon development； developing legal liability and risk mitigation system for green finance stakeholders；enhancing green supply-chain through dynamic financial instruments； and encouraging green and low carbon investment under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). NRDC has been cooperating with government agencies, think tanks, financial institutions, companies and NGOs to conduct policy and legal research, explore local best practice and innovative financial pilots, as well as to promote international exchange. Since 2006, NRDC established the Green Bank Network (GBN) with partners to support green finance projects and organized the Green Bank Congress annually.
