| Summary: | This research report is the result of a
partnership between the World Bank Group (WBG) and
Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) of Japan,
initiated by the World Bank Group's President, Jim Yong
Kim, and GPIF's Chief Investment Officer, Hiro Mizuno.
The aim is for the World Bank and IFC – member of the World
Bank Group focused on the private sector – and GPIF to
collaborate on initiatives that promote strategies for
including environmental, social and governance (ESG)
criteria in investment decisions across asset classes.
Ultimately, the goal is to direct more capital towards
sustainable investments and leverage the private sector to
achieve the scale of investment needed to meet the
Sustainable Development Goals. |
