| Ireland – Global Hub for Green and Sustainable Finance, e-Seminar 1 of 3

Ireland’s climate action bill is, according to the Government ‘the most ambitious legislation of its type in any country to date’ as it plans to enshrine in law a target to halve carbon emissions by 2030 and to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.

This commitment to building an economy with a strong environmental compass underpins the development of the industries that will power Ireland’s continued economic growth, including Sustainable Finance.

Ireland’s expertise in the fund, banking, insurance and risk industries coupled with its positioning at the forefront of global sustainability initiatives, provide unique opportunities to asset managers seeking a long-term solution for investor ESG requirements.
